What happens when ninth graders become designers… and second graders become the clients?

In our new Traveling Classroom experience, Upper School students partnered with Grade 2 learners to design personalized reading hideouts inspired by their interests and favorite book characters. It meant asking better questions. Listening closely. Printing blueprints to full scale. And watching younger students literally step inside the ideas.

The result? Real collaboration across campuses and a powerful reminder that design starts with empathy.

Read how this cross-divisional partnership is redefining Interim at the Campus Stories link in our bio!
