Building a cabin in the woods.

I spent time throughout my senior year designing and building a small cabin for my Senior Project. I spent over 300 hours on this project.
Woodburning
I have been working on woodburning for a year and making this board for our Student of the Block display was a chance to try my skills on a bigger scale than I had done in the past. It is entirely wood burned and it took as many hours as a grade level project. I’m hopefully going to pain a boarder on some 2x4s to add a bit of color but that will be another project.
The Great Migration

Flexibility and understanding around mental health needs and my child has been able to be themselves fully without worries around bullying because of how they dress or their sexual orientation.
Families
I love the SPED services, the project-based learning is awesome, I love how invested the teachers are, and the diversity of the community
Families
My education at Avalon didn't just encourage, but required me to be thoughtful in planning our projects and holding myself accountable for deadlines and deliverables while also stoking the fires of general curiosity.
