My Project

What I love most about my students is their creativity, curiosity, and pride in their work. Whether they're building a bridge out of popsicle sticks in STEM or painting a self-portrait in art, they pour their hearts into every project. Each piece tells a story of exploration, growth, and perseverance.

As we expand our 6th grade program, we’re welcoming even more eager minds into our learning space—and that means we need more room to celebrate and support their learning journeys.

These additional mailboxes will give each student a personal, safe space to store their visual art and STEM projects. It helps them stay organized, take responsibility for their work, and feel that their creations are valued.

Having dedicated space for their work not only honors their efforts but also fosters a sense of ownership and pride. It makes learning visible—tangible—and encourages students to keep creating, building, and dreaming.
