Brookside Elementary School's second graders participated in a hands-on “lemon-aide” stand project to learn basic economics while supporting a charitable cause. Guided by their teachers, the students applied concepts such as profit, supply and demand, budgeting, and advertising by running a lemonade stand during a school lunch period, quickly raising over $1,400 for Camp Anchor. Beyond financial literacy, the activity also helped students develop collaboration, creativity, communication, and critical thinking skills, while emphasizing civic engagement and character by showing how their efforts could positively impact others in the community.

Baldwin High School’s inaugural “Go Live! Day” allowed students in the high school’s News, Media and Film Academy as well as middle school students in the Public Speaking and Debate and Bruins News Network Pre-Academies to participate in a hands-on, career-connected learning experience. Industry professionals from journalism, broadcasting, and public relations lead interactive workshops, giving students exposure to real-world media production—from on-camera interviewing to behind-the-scenes work. Through rotating sessions, students built practical skills, explored potential career paths, and engaged in collaborative, immersive learning aligned with the district’s School2Career initiative.
