My Project

Our media center is the heart of the school, a place where students come not only to learn but also to connect with their peers. During Pack Time and throughout the day, students are looking for creative, screen-free activities that let them collaborate, de-stress, and challenge their minds. Many of my students don’t have access to puzzles at home, but they light up when they see opportunities for hands-on problem-solving in the library. They are curious, enthusiastic, and eager for chances to build friendships while engaging their brains in meaningful, positive ways.
