It is founded and organized by Terra Science and Education and hosted by the Rochester Institute of Technology. Sixty-seven countries are presenting in this event! Good luck, Ella! See pics here.
SIP News: Senior Riley Donat's internship at JCK Foundation is one of a kind! Riley has written, produced and performed a three part podcast that shares conversations between people with diverse mental struggles and the challenges they've overcome. The first episode was an overview of mental health; the second was a deep-dive on unconventional coping mechanisms; and the third episode features another JCK intern sharing his passion for art and music and the ways it serves as a healthy outlet. Way to go, Riley! See pics here.
- Ms. Scalise's Class: Current juniors who took AP World History last year challenged one of this year's AP World History classes (sophomores) in the game Taboo--the world history version: students make cards based on different concepts throughout the year. This is a much anticipated event in Ms. Scalise's class for several years! The students love the competition. See attached for some fun pictures of the kids playing. See pics here.
