At Crossroads, every project has the potential to become something bigger. 🌱⁠
⁠
A lesson can become a work of art. A science project can become a campus improvement. And students can become leaders who leave a lasting impact on the community around them.⁠
⁠
This spring, students in Howard Granok’s ECO-ACT classes transformed a sustainability project into a work of art by painting and installing three new rain barrels to replace our well-loved, weathered setup. These barrels will help conserve rainwater, support our campus gardens, and serve as a colorful reminder that caring for our environment can be both practical and creative.⁠
⁠
Projects like this reflect what makes Crossroads unique. We believe science and art aren’t separate disciplines: they often work hand in hand. By inviting students to approach environmental challenges through both scientific thinking and artistic expression, we create opportunities for deeper learning, stronger connections, and meaningful action.⁠
⁠
A huge congratulations and thank you to our talented student artists and rising seniors Josie A., Abby B., Kierra C-G., Gus K., Ashtin K., Jonas M., and Kat M. Your creativity, leadership, and commitment to sustainability have made our campus a little greener, and a lot more colorful. 💙🎨🌧️⁠
