My Project

Students are bombarded with technology today. Not only are they using technology in their classes, but they are utilizing it most of their evenings as well. Many do not know the value of having face to face conversations. We are hoping to provide this opportunity for our students centered around board games. We are creating an after school Game Club where students will be provided time and the materials, all they need to provide is the conversation and the fun! We are also hoping to create time for chess in the library during the school day. Face to face conversations are too important to not be developed in our students!
