Quantum Parent Bulletin #27
February 23, 2026
The Beat Goes On!
Our 7th grade students have been diving deeper into ancient history through a dynamic Genius Hour project where they have been researching and recreating musical instruments from ancient civilizations using modern materials. It's another example of the hands-on project-based learning that occurs at Quantum all throughout the school year!
Genius Hour Presentations For Families
Our students have been working extremely hard on their Genius Hour projects over these past four weeks and they are excited to show them off!
Families are invited to come by to see the Genius Hour projects for their student in their classrooms at the following days/times:
- 4th Grade - This Friday, February 27, 8:30-9:00
- 5th-8th Grades: This Thursday, February 26, 8:30-9:00
Due to space limitations and to ensure the optimal presentation environment, parents are only being invited to visit their child's classroom.
