March 14th was National “Write Your Story Day.” Middle school students honored this event by writing their own stories using a technology platform called padlet. Everyone has a story to tell. It has been a part of our human existence from the beginning of time. One of the best ways to pass on our major life events to posterity is to document them. This autobiographical project gave students the opportunity to celebrate their uniqueness that they all possess, that distinguishing factor that sets them all apart—their story.

In April 14&15 students conducted Student Led Conference with their parents and guardians. During this time students shared evidence of the six guiding principles explaining along the way how and why pieces of work demonstrate the principles. Our attendance was exceptional! 9 HS need to complete the process and 6 MS students need to meet. There are a number of reasons why they are important to participate in and we appreciate everyone adjusting plans to make this happen. The picture below is a MS student waking mom though his slideshow presentation. We’ll done everyone!!
