Building Community Through Field Trips in the Mups
Establishing a community within our classroom is not only a part of the first few weeks of school, it is the foundation for everything that we create and build on as a class. In the Mups classroom, we believe that before children can truly focus on academic learning, they need to feel safe and seen by their classmates and their teachers.
Introducing Uppers (6th-8th) Projects Class at the Green River
In 6th, 7th, and 8th grade (Uppers) we have a class called Projects Class. In this class students are required to engage in the creative process, responding to open-ended and structured prompts. The course is designed to enhance these qualities: passion, ambition, initiative, perseverance, and collaboration.
