Spring 2014

by Kristin Elliott on Wed, 03/05/2014 - 9:29pm | 0 comments | 241 views

As one of the HUB Coordinators and specifically as the ELO Coordinator for E-Cubed Academy, I've had the opportunity to pop into several of the programs early this session and see some of the work that the students, community partners, and teachers are engaging in. I've already witnessed some pretty amazing levels of inquiry, discussion, and hands-on-learning among these students.

A sincere and early congratulations to the organizations and individuals providing such high quality learning experiences to Providence students!

Big shout out to our friends at the Environmental Justice League of RI and Alvarez students in Dave Evans' AP Environmental Science class for putting together this great short documentary about the impact that Gorham Silver has had on Mashapaug Pond and the surrounding community. They created it with the help of local artist David Stephens.

Alvarez students! If you haven't already seen this video, take the time to do so.
