Fall Middle School Showcase

Our Fall Middle School Choice Academy Showcase highlighted the hard work and dedication of our students as they explored new career pathways this semester. Through our academies—Art, Theater, Healthcare, Chess, International Flavors, Photography, Dance, S.T.E.M., and Basketball—students were able to dive into hands-on learning experiences that not only fostered their creativity but also allowed them to explore potential careers and interests. The showcase was a chance to celebrate their achievements and the skills they’ve developed along the way.

Each academy had the opportunity to present their work from the semester, and the results were nothing short of impressive. From vibrant artwork to dynamic dance routines, engaging STEM projects, and culinary creations, it was clear that our students had put in the effort and passion into each project.

After much anticipation, the winner of the Fall Middle School Showcase was announced: International Flavors! With an almost perfect score, this academy wowed the judges with its culinary creativity and the students’ deep knowledge of global cuisines.

We want to extend our gratitude to the community partners who help make these academies possible, including the United Arts Council and Gulfshore Playhouse. Their support allows us to offer these invaluable learning experiences, helping our students develop new skills while exploring their passions and career possibilities.

Congratulations to all of our students who participated, and a special shout-out to the winners! We’re excited to see what the next semester holds for our Choice Academies.
