Whether you love chess or soccer, jewelry making or painting, math, reading or science—this is the class for you! Welcome to The Genius Workshop, a hands-on, self-directed passion project class designed to celebrate divergent thinking and individual interests. This is not a traditional class; it is an open-ended exploration period where students take the lead. Students will step into our specially equipped "magical room," examine our vast array of supplies (ranging from traditional art materials and building kits to coding resources and advanced research tools), and create whatever their mind can think of. Projects are entirely based on the student's own ideas and passions. Instructor: R. Barajas & T. Mandraccia
