We try to do projects outside the norm. This is for the kids that need the hands-on (projects).

We used metal sets (as a background). They would use magnets to move the pieces (clouds, trees, clay animals, etc.) for each shot.

The first trip was in November. We plan on one more trip in June (with a third group).

We talked about school over the summer in 2004. (We decided) to combine classes.

We're trying to give them options. You don't have to be a doctor or a lawyer. We take what we know and put it together.

The research that goes into the projects these kids do is phenomenal. It's a good way to get them prepared for college.
