Our STEM campers didn't just brainstorm solutions this week—they built them! Students took on PGM's big sustainability questions and engineered some incredible, hands-on projects, including:
Pond Management 🎣 - Built bio-filters and fish cribs to keep our school pond healthy!
Waste Reduction ♻️ - Designed and built working waste sorting machines to improve recycling!
Sustainable Food Production 🚜 - Constructed vertical gardens and coded Sphero robots to automatically "harvest" crops.
Everyone had a blast getting creative while exploring the design process!
It's been a week since the last day of school, but we are still smiling over these end-of-the-year moments! Thank you to everyone who made this year so special. We hope you're all having a safe, happy, and relaxing summer break! 😎 #TheGrove

This week, a group of PGM students toured Wiregrass Technical College to explore their programs, career pathways, and dual enrollment opportunities available to them in high school.
Experiences like this help students see opportunities they may have never considered before. We’re excited to help them dream big about their futures! ⭐️
Peering into the science of sight—8th grade physical science students explored lenses by dissecting cow eyes! 👀🐄🔍 #STEM
Mrs. Herman and Mrs. Hopkins' classes combined for a few creative activities to wrap up the school year! They wrote collaborative stories by tossing paper snowballs and adding lines to the paper they picked up, lobbied for others to join their position on silly arguments, and wrote favorite memories from the school year on paper airplanes they launched into the future! ✏️⚖️✈️
