We had 62 attendees with 11 schools represented at the Summer Institute this year (Canyon Heights Academy, Clear Water Academy, East Lake Academy, Everest Collegiate/Academy Clarkston, Everest Academy Manila, Everest Academy Lemont, Mano Amiga Mexico, Sacred Heart Apostolic School, Pinecrest Academy, Royalmont Academy, and The Highlands School).
We also had two teachers and three students from The Oxford School in Mexico present two topics: Wi-Sci Teen Streaming and RRR: Recycle, Reduce and Reuse to Create a Robot. They were also presenters at the ISTE Conference!
This Summer Institute focused on our curriculum improvement project. We launched the RC Education online professional development course that explores Integral Formation as our educational model and helps us reflect on how to incorporate it in the learning area frameworks, standards, and benchmarks.
We spent the week at the beautiful Carmelite Spiritual Center and also visited Everest Academy Lemont one night as well as participated in one day of the ISTE convention in downtown Chicago.
