Eighth Graders Enjoy Productive Studio Week

February 13, 2026

This week was our annual Capstone Studio Week for our eighth grade students. They had several hours each day in which to work on their Capstone projects. The students were assigned to small groups across campus, supporting one another with ideas and positivity. Throughout the week, our arts and technology teachers were on hand to answer questions and offer guidance and suggestions. Mentors checked in with their students’ progress. We closed out the week of productivity and excitement with a prototype exhibit this morning. Our students will put the finishing touches on their projects soon, and when we return from break, they will start preparing their presentations to share their learning journey with the whole community.

Capstone presentations will be held in the Palandjian Arts Center the week of April 13. Don’t miss this chance to learn about topics such as penguins, opioids, gene therapy, baking, and many, many more from our wonderful eighth graders.
