In this Spanish 1 project, students will use what they’ve learned throughout the semester to create original greeting cards written entirely in Spanish. This project, titled ¡Tarjetas con corazón!, allows students to demonstrate their understanding of basic vocabulary, cultural expressions, and present-tense communication in a meaningful and creative way.
Experience student-developed video game environments built in Unreal Engine. These maze-style games challenge players to think strategically while navigating obstacles. It’s a test of precision and timing!
Come test your coordination on our physics-defying courses! See if you can navigate the hazards, collect all the items, and reach the goal for a chance to win prizes and gaming gear!
Our First Tech Challenge robotics team, PantherX, have been working hard to build, code, drive, and compete with our robot. Come learn how our students have worked together to build their robot, see a demonstration of it in action, and hear about what's next as the team looks forward to the last two competitions of the year.
Art - This exhibit showcases how students identified a real-world need for shelter and safety during transitions between our two ChiTech buildings and responded with innovative design. Following a professional design cycle—from initial inspiration and hand-drafted floor sketches to detailed 3D models—students developed a series of modular structures paired with a vibrant floor mural. Explore the collaborative process of creating a visually unified, weather-protected pathway that turns a simple walk between classes into a community-centered experience.
Hydroponics - Explore the future of food in this living laboratory of soil-free agriculture. Students have engineered custom hydroponic systems that use nutrient-rich water and precision lighting to grow fresh produce in urban spaces. Witness the intersection of biology and technology as they demonstrate how to maximize growth with minimal resources.
In this interactive learning lab session, senior students guide participants through an examination of narrative structure and its role in effective storytelling. Through analysis, discussion, and applied examples, student facilitators demonstrate how intentional narrative design strengthens clarity, coherence, and audience engagement across a range of texts and disciplines.
Physics - This exhibit features student-built miniature models of "Net Zero" tiny homes, where every watt of energy used is balanced by renewable sources. Visitors can explore the engineering process behind these dollhouse-scale prototypes—from testing insulation materials and solar placement to iterating on passive heating and cooling techniques. See how students applied core physics concepts to build small-scale solutions for a more sustainable future.
Aerospace - Experience the intersection of science and imagination as students take to the skies through aerospace engineering. This exhibit features custom-built glider prototypes designed to master the forces of flight. Visitors can see how students applied aerodynamic equations to solve engineering challenges—navigating the balance of lift, weight, thrust, and drag—and explore the data from their flight tests to see how these designs performed in the air.
Explore a live digital newsroom where student teams have built and managed their own blogs. This exhibit highlights the full journalistic cycle—from choosing a beat like sports or current events to publishing six polished articles per team. Visitors can browse reported features featuring original interviews, read evidence-based opinion pieces, and go behind the scenes to see the writing processes’ of our authors.
Students collaboratively designed a complete alphabet by forming letters using their bodies and everyday objects. Each letter was carefully planned, photographed, and digitally refined before being arranged into a cohesive visual system. Students then transformed their designs into custom magnets by printing, cutting, and assembling each letter by hand. This project highlights creativity, collaboration, problem-solving, and intentional design, turning the alphabet into a functional and interactive artwork.
Explore a timeline of the Civil Rights Movement, built by students to map the critical turning points in the fight for equality. This display organizes the movement into key categories—from landmark court cases and influential activists to the strategic planning of bus boycotts and national organizations. Visitors can trace the connections between these events and see how the work of individual leaders and collective action combined to change the landscape of American law and society.
