HSEP Showcase Night
 HSEP’s first ever Showcase Night was a huge success! Well attended by students and community members, the Showcase was an opportunity for students to share their learning from Quarter 1. Students created displays that showcased their final projects, as well as the process for each of their units in 11th and 12th grade. Students chose the format of the event and ordered catered food (yummy S & S wings!) for guests and staff. Work on display included: student goal setting, construction of model homes, budgeting, short documentary films about different careers, creation of a greenhouse, and redesigning of political maps of the city to enact social change.
 Thanksgiving Feast
HSEP hosted our annual thanksgiving celebration with a delicious spread attended by students, families and HSEP alum. People brought in many dishes to share including student made pastelitos!
MakerTime Elective at HSEP
 MakerTime is a new elective offering at HSEP with CRLS Instructional Technology Specialist, Nicole Hart and HSEP educator Kathleen Corcoran. MakerTime is a hands-on course where students work both in the physical and digital space. Students in MakerTime have visited Lesley University's film department with Professor Ingrid Stobbe, experimented with direct animation on 16mm film, made paper circuit pop-up cards, constructed bristlebots, and more! Throughout the month of December, MakerTime students are engaging in Maker Month activities at CRLS.
Field Trip to Harvard's Museum of Natural History
 Cohotrts H and S led by Ms. Robb and Mr. Goldman attended a field trip to Harvard’s Museum of Natural History to see their Climate Change exhibit. The exhibit draws on the latest scientific information about our warming climate and its global and local consequences. This event kicked off the new unit for upperclassmen, called A Warmer World. In this particular unit, students are investigating the effects of climate change by imagining a world that is five degrees warmer. They are using this information as the setting for a graphic novel or short story, which they will market with merchandise at our next showcase.
ASL MakerSpace
 Taught by ASL teacher, Peter Strickler, the 9th and 10th grade cohorts are learning sign language as well as various carpentry skills. Students are learning carpentry fundamentals while making wooden boxes and will go on to build more complex birdhouses. The students under the supervision of Mr. Strickler are using power and hand tools and learning how to safely use a saw, hammer, power drill, clamps, and tape measuring to do their projects.
