This year, we received an incredible grant from the Innovative Technology Education Fund for some high-tech, high-def drones. The capabilities and professional applications of drones make them a perfect focus for a 5th Day course. In Drone Crew, students learn how to fly, maneuver, and film with drones. They also learn creative and technical skills by staging, directing, and editing...

Boundless Days are the first three days of school, during which we show our middle schoolers what it means to be Crossroadian. Sometimes, we must leave campus to form closer bonds and relationships. We find that there is immense potential in the disequilibrium a new, unfamiliar...
