IGSS

Students are grappling with "White Noise" today, a book rich with satire and the complexity of an airborne toxic event.

Balloon House competition is an excellent way to wrap up the week in IGSS! #community

Our students were so lucky today to listen to and ask questions of a range of environmental experts. Thank you to Lena Reynolds @ELPCenter; W. Robert Schultz III @activetrans; Linda Kurtz @GoGreenWilmette; Cam Davis @MWRDGC; Lynn McClure @NPCA

Amazing day learning about the Chicago River from ⁦@BridgehouseMuse⁩ and ⁦@UrbanRiv⁩

Froebel's Gifts encourage children to make connections in their learning, to explore, and to build. HS students feel some anxiety about not having directions! #OpenMind

A bittersweet day as we say goodbye to our seniors. We love you!

IGSS took a trip to the Skokie Lagoons today for community building on this beautiful day!

IGSS represents at #prom!

Working on our #resistance ceramics!

On our final day of discussing #Beloved, we're reminded of the tremendous power of literature to open eyes, hearts, and minds

Big thank yous to the @SteppenwolfThtr and the Midwest Buddhist Temple for an enriching field trip today!

Unlike the real #Congress, our students collaborated and passed a bipartisan #immigration bill! ⁦@MikeJohnson⁩ @RepChipRoy ⁦@GOPMajorityWhip⁩ ⁦@RepMGP⁩

As part of our mock Congress, students are working in committees today to mark up immigration bills. #congress

We are so grateful to the @NTEdFoundation for all of their support!

@NTEdFoundation @NewTrier203 So grateful to the @NTEdFoundation and the Fowkes Family!

(2/3) @IGSSers teachers attended a project based learning conference, thanks to the Foundation’s first ever Fowkes Family Grant. Professional development opportunities like this provide knowledge & tools for faculty to create impactful programs for @NewTrier203 students.

(1/3) @NewTrier203 @IGSSers teachers developed a Service Learning project in which students worked in small groups outside the school while learning about aspects of poverty specific to their interests. It focused on relevant, engaging, and student-centered learning experiences.

Happy Birthday, Tom!

Providing students with the opportunity to effect change is one of the best parts of IGSS!
