As we consider our intellectual and personal histories, we can re-evaluate who we are. At [|Science Leadership Academy] (SLA), we ask students to consider the following questions during their freshman year:
 * Who am I?
 * How do I interact with the environment?
 * How does the environment affect me?

Students have had the opportunity to investigate aspects of African American history to better understand what it means to be an American, and individual --- and perhaps, part of a community. Specific projects that we have been working on are listed. Click on each link to learn more about each project. = =
 * Civil War WikiBook - Students followed/created the experiences of people in the Civil War and created "personal profiles." Thanks to Ms. Clara Badimon for coordinating this project!
 * Ethnomusicology - Students studied the influence of African and African American music on American culture.
 * Civil Rights Commercials - Students created 30-second commercials that capture a debate, argument of position thin the 20th century Civil Rights era.
