Episode Summary 

On this episode, I meet Charlotte, Saar, Stella, and Viviana (Vivi) to talk about Community Partners Week and their work leading up to the PYP exhibition at NIST. This was the 3rd annual Community Partners Week, and by all accounts, the best one yet. During Community Partners Week, students in the primary years program had opportunities to connect with community partners like Helping Heart (EY-Y1), a local nursery (EY-Y1), Student-led service groups Eco and Plastic-free NIST (Y2), Operation Smile (Y3), Student-led service group FemiNIST (Y4), and Student-led service group FashioNIST (Y5). Join me for a great conversation with these students from Y6 to learn what they were up to for CPW working with community partners and high school students from ServiceCo and don’t miss our next episode that will feature Omaira and Tul from ServiceCo sharing some behind the scenes information on this amazing peer-to-peer learning experience.
