They’ve worked hard and come up with creative solutions. When students worked in writing and reciting poetry, they planned a day called “poetry coffee house” where they dimmed the lights, drank tea and hot chocolate from their favorite mugs, and shared snaps for the poets as they presented their creative writing on a makeshift stage.

I was an observer more than a nerd,” Arlyne said, “learning that you can be creative in different elements of your life.”. She liked science, but didn’t picture herself wearing hard hats as a civil engineer like her father. They were looking for someone who could observe and think creatively.

I did a series on what a #TrumpPresidency meant for education. Public school facilities received a grade of D+ from the American Society of Civil Engineers. underfunds school infrastructure by $46 billion, resulting in thousands of schools that are outdated, unsafe, unfit, and – in some cases – making kids and educators sick.
