Whitney Library Window Displays by EKA
11/10/2011

Whitney Library’s display windows are now featuring works from Explore Knowledge Academy’s students!

Advisors from the secondary campus selected choice products from their students. After rounding up the advisors’ selections, Ms. Chapman and Ms. Mendoza spent an afternoon constructing the display.

Although space is limited at the library, each advisor will have a chance to have their students’ work featured. The library staff will be allowing EKA to rotate items displayed.

So far, the featured projects focus mainly on science-related topics. For instance, one of Ms. Mendoza’s students completed a project on plants. The pupil produced a display of a nature scene. The student used both real and synthetic plants. She also incorporated plastic animals that she recycled, thus showing her concern for the environment.
