LFCDS Student-Led Technology Conference

    • LFCDS Innovation Lab
       Science is a cooperative enterprise, spanning the generations. It's the passing of a torch from teacher, to student, to teacher. A community of minds reaching back to antiquity and forward to the stars.
-- Neil deGrasse Tyson

Recently we at Lake Forest Country Day School wanted to create some inspiration. Though not out of the woods, we saw reason to be optimistic about the pandemic and we were ready to switch from survival mode to thriving mode. So we invited students from Grades 1 through Grades 12, from close to home and as far as India, to share some of the work they’ve completed during an unforgettable school year. Each of the approximately twenty-minute videos is presented below. Presentations are in three tracks - Elementary, Middle, and High School. Students share curriculum, tools, resources, and experiences they've learned from throughout this school year. We hope to turn this challenging experience into an inspirational one. Come be inspired by these amazing students!

We’d like to thank each of the students and their faculty advisors. In a year where taking on something “extra” might have felt impossible, these students reminded us of the importance of taking the time to stop and reflect. We are grateful for their participation and their perspective.
