NECC

08/26/2024

As we approach the start of a new year, we at Jefferson and NECC wanted to spend some time building connections, collaborating, communicating, and, in the spirit of the major focus of work this year as we develop our Portrait of a Graduate, critical thinking.

Last week on the first day back for teachers, we gave them one package of balloons (not inflated), one roll of masking tape, and 20 minutes to build the tallest tower they could. Team members had to strategize a plan, communicate effectively and work together to win.

Congratulations to our yellow team, who built the tallest, free-standing structure that stayed up!
