Science students get creative

The Village School students Suzanne Julliot, Elizabeth Julliot, Filip Mikulek, Sam Swan, Faheema Adeniyi, and Emily Bhattacharjee (pictured, from left) participated in this year’s annual Art Car parade. The group of 5th through 8th graders worked together to create a Viking ship, an appropriate choice as the school’s mascot is a Viking. Art teacher Tyler Willmore is grateful the middle-school students had this creative opportunity. “I want students exposed to as many different opportunities as possible in which they can publicly exhibit their art and showcase what they are learning,” he said. “As a science, technology, engineering, and mathematics school, a project like an art car helps us incorporate all of our subjects into creating a final product. It was great to see students develop their teamwork, communication, and problem-solving skills while doing something fun and creative.”
