Project IMP∆CT

Grade 5 students are inspiring positive change for the Earth and its people within the St. Andrew's community and beyond. 

A note from the editors:

We are honored to begin IMP∆CT for the year and for the students to engage in the important work of telling the story of the world as they see it. Students at this age are inspired to create positive change "for the Earth and its people". The stories you will see are generated, from ideation to publishing, by student journalists inspired to use digital storytelling as a way to spread messages important to them. Please read the mission statement of Project IMP∆CT and join us as we add to the legacy of 5th graders at St. Andrew's Episcopal School generating positive change in their world.

St. Andrew's Episcopal School sees diversity as an integral element of community and education, and a vital facet of our mission, core values, and Episcopal identity. We believe that community diversity manifests in many ways, including ethnicity, national origin, religion, gender, sexual orientation, socioeconomic status, family composition, and physical ability. In our commitment to attracting, fostering, and celebrating all aspects of diversity, St. Andrew’s aims to create an intentional environment of equity and inclusion.
