At Springville Middle School, students belong to academic teams consisting of Social Studies, English, Math, Science and Foreign Language teachers. Everyday each team of teachers has an enrichment period where students are able to choose an activity or project that interests them. The projects are related to the curriculum being studied but are not graded. SGI teachers often describe enrichment as “things you always wanted to try but didn’t have time to during a regular class period.” The stratosphere balloon project was offered as an enrichment project and over 60 students volunteered to participate.
