It's that time of year! We take time to reflect on our lives and what we are thankful for. I am truly blessed to be working with such a great group of students, parents, colleagues, and community. My wish is that everyone's Thanksgiving holiday is filled with warmth, family, friends, and love.
This week I plan to introduce Genius Hour to our students. Coming back from break, they will get two 90 minute days a week (up until winter break) to work on a project they are passionate about. They must create a project that has a research component, has the potential to make the world a better place, and showcase a passion of their's. Please check out our Genius Hour tab on the blog and ask your child about Genius Hour over break. They should have an idea ready to submit when we get back on 11/27.
