Somewhere in the world, New Year's just arrived — and it's not January.

In this month’s C.O.O.L.™ Time Capsule, we travel to Ethiopia to discover Enkutatash — a celebration of renewal marked by songs, shared meals, bonfires, and the return of sunshine after the rainy season.

🌸 What would it feel like to carry an entire garden on your back?

Each August, Medellín, Colombia, comes alive during the Feria de las Flores—a joyful celebration of flowers, music, art, family, and community.

At the heart of the festival are the silleteros of Santa Elena. Using skills passed down through generations, these flower-growing families transform wooden frames called silletas into breathtaking works of floral art and proudly carry them through the city.

In this month’s C.O.O.L.™ Time Capsule, discover how a practical farming tool became a powerful symbol of creativity, history, and community pride.

🎶 Music. Storytelling. Tradition. Resilience.

Every July, people gather in northern Norway to celebrate the Riddu Riđđu Festival—a festival that honors the culture, language, and traditions of the Sámi, the Indigenous people of northern Europe.

In this month's C.O.O.L.™ Time Capsule, discover how one festival is helping preserve a culture that has survived for thousands of years despite many challenges. Along the way, you'll learn about the Sámi way of life, their connection to nature, and why protecting languages and traditions matters for future generations.

A global debt. A collapsing economy. A meeting that changed history.

In this month's C.O.O.L.™ Time Capsule, we travel back to July 1-22, 1944 to explore the Bretton Woods Conference—a gathering of world leaders determined to prevent another global economic crisis and reduce the risk of another world war.

🌏✨ Cultural Arts Week Recap ✨🇹🇼

Our scholars traveled across the world—without leaving campus—as they explored the rich culture and traditions of Taiwan with Ms. Kitty and Ms. Vickie from Taiwan!

Throughout the week, students tried Tai Chi, learned basic Mandarin phrases, practiced Chinese calligraphy, created traditional puppet crafts, listened to Taiwanese music, and even challenged themselves to use chopsticks.

One of the highlights of the week was experiencing authentic Taiwanese cuisine, including Taiwanese rice noodles, Basil (Three Cup) Chicken, and bubble tea! 🧋 Students also had fun dancing to Taiwanese songs and discovering how culture connects people around the world.

At SR1, we believe that exposing students to diverse cultures helps broaden perspectives, build empathy, and inspire curiosity about our global community.

Thank you to all of our educators, staff, and scholars for making Cultural Arts Week such a memorable experience! ❤️

Freedom declared. Freedom delayed. Freedom finally realized.

In this month's C.O.O.L.™ Time Capsule, we explore the story behind Juneteenth—the day news of emancipation finally reached thousands of enslaved African Americans in Texas, more than two years after the Emancipation Proclamation was issued.

Discover how a delayed message became a lasting symbol of freedom, resilience, and the ongoing pursuit of equality.

The first week of summer camp is officially complete!

What an incredible start to SR1's 14th Annual Summer Camp. Our scholars spent the week exploring that health and brain power go hand in hand. They built confidence, made new friends, explored healthy habits, and learned that taking care of their minds and bodies helps them thrive.

And we're just getting started!

✨ Four more exciting weeks to go:
• College Prep
• Cultural Arts & Literacy
• Computer Science
• STEM Capstone Showcase

The energy, curiosity, and enthusiasm our students bring each day remind us why this work matters. We can't wait to see what they'll accomplish next.

A legal fiction. A determined advocate. A nation-changing decision.
