CRAFT program at the Upper Valley Teaching Place Collaborative Conference
Huge kudos to Aleks Cirovic, Riley O'Neal, Owen Whalen, and Chelsea McDermott who represented the CRAFT program at the Upper Valley Teaching Place Collaborative Conference at the Lake Morey Resort last week! Students presented in front of a group of 25 educators about CRAFT, reflected on meaningful learning experiences, and elegantly answered a number of questions.
They facilitated the harvest and sampling of microgreens and shared everything from Food Justice to EcoArt to Wind Turbine building. Educators were impressed by their articulateness and the interdisciplinary opportunities that they are taking advantage of. We hope that CRAFT can serve as a model for other schools to integrate place-based learning into their curriculum in deep and connected ways.
