Gifted and Talented Expo at Burbank Middle School
On Thursday, March 31, 2022, Burbank's cafeteria was transformed into an exhibit hall. It was the Annual Gifted and Talented Expo, where our Vanguard students got an opportunity to discuss what they had been investigating for the previous months. Parents and the general public were invited to attend from 5:00pm to 6:30pm and talk to the students as they visited the exhibits.
6th Grade 1st Place Project: "Our Government's Revolution" by Catalina Perez
Students worked individually or in groups. They created digital projects and/or constructed display boards. Parents helped “judge” the projects, and we were able to select a first, second, and third place winner for each grade level.
Below are the winners:
