Our 7th graders took the mic at today’s Town Hall! They didn’t just talk; they took ownership of their learning by identifying the Habits of Mind needed to finish the year strong. From rethinking protocols to driving change—this is what student agency looks like!

Our 8th grade historians turned their DBQ evidence into visual arguments and asked the question, was the 1920's the "Roaring Twenties" or an "Era of Paranoia"? We can't wait to see their perspectives and how they connect the past to the present with a connection to the 2020s.

Today, 7th grade students were diving deep into Refugee by Alan Gratz. It’s one thing to read a story, but these students are master detectives—identifying powerful themes of survival, sacrifice, and hope and backing it all up with rock-solid textual evidence.
