SMALL WORLD ACADEMY ENJOYS EXCITING SUMMER PROGRAM

On August 8 the Wabash Valley Small World Academy students entertained their families and friends at a closing program dinner.  Students ages 5-12 prepared a lasagna meal and served it up “in style” with chef hats and aprons.

This summer students of the Small World Academy learned about camping, oceans, and the United States.  Students made ceramic pieces, string art, and tie blankets.  Each student ordered a travel book from his/her favorite state and then studied all about the state bird, flag, crops grown there, the famous landmarks, etc.  Students made posters to share with the crowd.  Those attending the Academy this year also traveled to the Indianapolis Zoo and went camping in a cabin at Rend Lake State Park.

This program is a one-of-a-kind opportunity for local students to supplement academic skills over the summer and learn new skills through discovery and exploration.  Bowling, sports, swimming, and volunteer opportunities are also a vital part of this program.  Applications for the 2019 Summer Program will open in February.  Space is limited.
