Creative Challenge Day at Hudson

The WG Gifted program sponsored  its 3rd  Annual Creative Challenge Day at Hudson. 3rd grade gifted students from Kennard Classical  Jr . Academy in the St. Louis Public Schools District joined Project Plus students at Hudson for the first time. 



The purpose of the competition was to engage students in high-level thinking in a friendly competitive spirit. This event  offered the students the opportunity to collaborate between schools by engaging in creative problem solving and mathematics with skills involving teamwork, task organization, idea generation, democratic process and decision-making.
