📣 WBL Student Shout-Out: Camp Invention Dream Team! 🤖💡
It takes more than great activities to make a summer camp unforgettable—it takes great people. This summer, five Roosevelt High School Work-Based Learning students stepped up as leaders, mentors, problem-solvers, and role models for elementary students at Weld RE-5J's Camp Invention!
👏 Megan Christy, Karla Herrera Salgado, Julian Keeling, Nariah Stanley, and Jolyn Turnbull worked alongside Camp Invention Coordinator Karen Wieser to create an engaging week of hands-on STEM learning.
Before campers even arrived, this team was preparing materials and organizing activities. Throughout the week, they helped students build, create, problem-solve, collaborate, and gain confidence.
The experience also brought together two RHS Career and Technical Education Pathways. Julian and Karla, from Engineering & Technology, used their STEM and problem-solving skills to support engineering challenges, while Megan, Nariah, and Jolyn, from Teacher Cadet, put their teaching and classroom skills into action.
And the experience doesn't stop with summer! Megan, Nariah, and Jolyn will continue working as paid teaching assistants in Weld RE-5J elementary schools this fall, while Julian and Karla will continue building their skills in Engineering & Technology and as leaders on the VEX Robotics Team.
❤️🩶 A huge thank you to Karen Wieser and the Camp Invention teaching team for mentoring these students and creating meaningful opportunities for them to lead and learn.
We also extend our sincere appreciation to The Weld Trust, whose generous grant made Camp Invention free for participating families—creating an incredible STEM experience for younger students while also providing meaningful Work-Based Learning opportunities for RHS students.
That's a win at every level! 🚀
