On today’s show your host Matt Watson talks with the middle school team at SCVi charter schools. Together, they talk about how they work to help their learners grow by using the Project Based Learning model which gives them a chance to work hands-on rather than strictly through textbooks. The Fall Festival is happening on Saturday, October 19 which is a fundraiser for the schools on the SCVi campus. SCVi and iLead is a cluster of free, public charter schools with campuses in Lancaster, Castaic and Agua Dulce as well as an online learning program and home study school.
