Teacher quote Heading link
It gave students an opportunity to see themselves as something other than students… I think back to my own experience, and you go through the motions of school, and that’s what you’re supposed to do but you never really think about yourself in any other capacities than just a student and a child. This really gave them life skills in terms of planning for future and the curriculum really walked them through step by step.
