An opportunity for students to utilize our Portrait of a Graduate Traits through exploration and discovery. Each activity is guided and provides challenges that keep students engaged during our media class.

Here are the 10 traits for our Portrait of a Graduate program:

11/21: Family Night @ Zero Gravity @2292 Woodale Dr; Mounds View from 5-8 p.m.

We partnered with Zero Gravity, a locally-owned, family-owned adventure park six miles from school. They have jumping services, an arcade, a ninja rope course and laser tag. For our family fun night, they’ll offer jump passes for $9.99; all funds from ticket purchases will be donated back to creating more family events for Adams families. More information to come about how to purchase advance tickets.

"Metro by T-Mobile is committed to bridging the digital divide for students in kindergarten through 12th grade across the country, through their Project 10Million initiative. This year, through our partnership with Metro by T-Mobile, and as our National Internet Connectivity sponsor, we are supporting teachers and their classroom by sharing Project 10Million with them. Through the program, qualifying students receive FREE mobile hotspots that provide FREE internet access in the classroom and at home for FIVE years.

The Digital Divide, defined as the gap that exists between those who have reliable internet access and devices and those with very limited access or none at all, impacts 1 in 4 students across the country. This equates to between 15 to 16 million students K-12 who aren’t able to access class during days of e-learning or for homework.

Through Metro by T-Mobile’s Project 10Million, students kindergarten through 12th grade can receive access through the click of a button—it’s that easy—and important."
