This past Tuesday, ISB had it’s second ever Passion Day. I was fortunate to be able to move between the many amazing learning opportunities kids were engaged in throughout the day. I saw students learning to rock climb, cartoon, dance, DJ, code programming, cook, do magic, learn psychology, make prints, play sports, learn gymnastics, build robots, and craft jewelry. And that’s just some of what I saw on campus. Off campus, students were camping, recording music in a studio, learning about DJ-ing at a radio station, ziplining, fishing, wakeboarding, ice skating, and so much more.
Students and teachers interacted in new and different ways and engaged in learning connected to their interests and passions. We talk about and celebrate learning often at ISB. We are truly passionate about learning. It was terrific to have day for our students to learn about their passions.
We continue to compile and collect photos from the various learning experiences. Please “like” and follow our ISB Middle School Facebook page to see these celebrations of learning as well as others throughout the year.
