Learning Made Fun

The POPCS Smartlab has four islands in each rotation. It takes a POPCS student five - seven days to complete an island. Each island begins with a Challenge and is followed by "What You Need To Know" which leads to a "Do It!" and concludes with an Extend Yourself. Students work can work alone or with a partner learning collaboration and teamwork skills. Each rotation lasts  30 school days, and every student has the opportunity to experience each island. Listed below are the engagements for the year.   Our goal at POPCS is to make sure each student has the ability to learn new and interesting things, creating life-long learners who are passionate and excited about their educational journey.
