Avery '18: Rekindling the Fire of Curiosity within Teenagers
"Sparking curiosity in any human is essential because being curious is a human ability. Everyone has the ability to be curious about something. My project is trying to attempt channeling a student's curiosity into things that matter such as world affairs. By doing so, my project attempts to create a much more involved community that's knowledge stretches far beyond the classroom. Check out my project website."

Beyond the Classroom
11th and 12th GRADE INDEPENDENT PROJECTS
Students in grades 11 and 12 complete an interdisciplinary project that has three objectives:
1) to develop individual interest and independent ownership
2) to build core research, writing, speaking, and documentation skills
3) to demonstrate cross-curricular connections.
As part of the project, students must demonstrate how skills from at least two disciplines are relevant to their work on the project, and the project at both grade levels includes research, writing, documentation, and speaking, though the specific format of project components are defined by each grade level. This is an opportunity for students to approach school from a position of interest, connection, depth, and meaning.
The focus of the project in junior year is to find an area of interest and then to conduct real-world, meaningful research as they learn more about their topic/issue/problem and think about how they might direct that project into action in their senior year.
