Our Advanced Science students put their creativity and engineering skills to the test in our Cardboard Boat Regatta! 🚣‍♂️

Using only cardboard and duct tape, teams designed and built their own boats—then launched them in the pond to see if they could make it around the course. Some cruised, some splashed, but all showed incredible teamwork and perseverance.

Lizzie, one of our GHS Independent Studies Art students, just took creativity to another level—and it paid off with a winning project 🎉

Starting with nothing but a “gift” of assorted patterned papers, she hand-cut every single piece and transformed them into a stunning exterior for a highly intricate mask built on her own armature. But she didn’t stop there…

Inside, the mask features custom wiring and a remote-controlled lighting system that shifts in dynamic ways, glowing dramatically through the eye. And the tail? It’s fully responsive—moving in sync with the wearer’s body.

An incredible blend of craftsmanship, engineering, and imagination. So proud of this achievement
