We prize storytelling, self agency, and problem solving as parts of our program. Come hear directly from a student about what she learned and how she built her project.

Kiki wanted to show the dual emotions that she, as a teenager, is forced by society to display every day. Feeling upset but acting happy. Polite while offended. Dressed nicely while feeling stifled. Her dress was both beautiful and uncomfortable, like that act that many people must put on in society!
