My Project
We have a Ukranian transplant that is crazy for the cube. He is building friendships and making connections through his love of solving the Rubik's Cube and playing Chess.
Activities such as Rubik's Cube and Chess allow our students to create friendships while having fun in a nonthreatening way.
This is a great way for students who usually are not athletes and don't easily interact with others to develop their minds as they connect with other students with like interests. Both are great ways to build skills both personally and academically that will serve them well in life.
More than half of students from low‑income households
Data about students' economic need comes from the National Center for Education Statistics, via our partners at MDR Education. Learn more
