Dozens of Wooster High School sophomores gathered to display projects they’ve been crafting since the beginning of the school year as part of the Middle Years Program (MYP) and the accelerated college prep International Baccalaureate (IB) program at the school. Students were allowed to choose a topic that interests them, then plan and create a project to display to the rest of the school.

Some talented student artists chose to display their artwork while others showed off their baking skills. Another demonstrated how to make a piñata and related how its history plays an important role in Mexican culture. Still another demonstrated Morse Code.

“It was really fun, and I really liked that we could just choose whatever we wanted to do for this project,” said sophomore Lydia Kozloski, who created an illustrated video for her project based upon “Stopping By Woods on a Snowy Evening” by Robert Frost. “I had to find references of horses and figure out how to draw horses, sleighs… figure out what editing and art program I wanted to use and plan out my time and how much I was going to get done each day in order to get the project done in time.”

“It could be a something they make or build or learn, and then they have an opportunity to present their project,” said Wooster High School Principal David Kitchin. “Our students are creative: some are designing robots or building a couch or creating music, so this is an awesome opportunity for us to see some of our 10^th graders’ hidden talents and put them on display.”

“This year I see a lot of anime, lots of food, and some great STEM-based projects,” said Zeynep Evenson, the MYP coordinator and English teacher at Wooster High School. “They get to pick something they love, and that’s what makes this event special. It doesn’t feel like school work. For some of these students, it’s a taste of what can be done when you love something and it truly matters to you, you can be successful in doing it.”

During the showcase, 175 8^th grade students and their teachers from Vaughn Middle School walked to the high school to see the projects, perhaps gathering ideas for what they would like to research and study when they arrive at the high school next year.
