STAR Events present teachers with a tools for student learning in reflection, planning, teamwork, applied academics, “metacognition”, speaking and oral presentations, community public relations opportunities and using alumni or parents to help preview the events.
Members may compete scoring their results on a rubric evaluation with a team of “judges” who give feedback and encourage them onto the next level. Local, region, state and national participation awaits!
It’s a magic process!
