Maturity and Advanced Learning - 8th Grade PIP Tal Maturity and Advanced Learning - 8th Grade PIP Talks

On Tuesday, our 8th grade students took to the stage to present their Personal Interest Projects (PIP). These presentations were the culmination of several months of academic work and are great examples of how our students shine as they matriculate through the grades. PIP presentations begin in 4th grade and grow in depth and complexity as students advance with each grade level. By the time they reach 8th grade, they are prepared to engage in meaningful research and present topics that hold both personal and societal impacts. PIP topics from this year include: Green Rocket Fuels, How Screens Affect People in Their Daily Lives, The Science of the Scam, and Equal Work - Equal Pay.

The Omega program engages the Rainbow Seven Domains of Learning with the advanced needs of the adolescent at the heart. Classroom learning does more than increase in complexity of content, it ensures meaning and purpose are infused in the student experience increasing internal motivation and empowering the students as partners in their learning. The holistic curriculum engages the diversity of skills needed to thrive into the high school years and beyond. 

We are so proud of our students and how much they have learned and matured during their time with us!
