Around Allen-Stevenson

A peek at what’s happening on 78th Street (and beyond) this month!

Lower Division (K-4)

Kindergarten students are studying physical science, particularly forces, motion, and how things move. They collaborated on designing and constructing objects that move at different speeds. Using stopwatches, they measured the variety of speeds for each design, making adjustments to either increase or decrease velocity using a number of unique materials.

Upper Division (5-8)

Our Upper Division boys performed "You're A Good Man, Charlie Brown!". Their hard work and dedication were evident throughout three energetic performances. From the actors on stage to the prop masters and lighting designers behind the scenes, the show's success was a true team effort.
