I loved Sandys class, my kids learned so much about history and what life was like on the Oregon trail. They also learned other great things. like manners that are important to life and class settings. Being quiet to listen to others, being positive and encouraging to others in class, and working in team environments. I had three boys in Sandys class that are high energy! I love that Sandy held them accountable, corrected them and still tried to create a fun atmosphere for class. She is a great teacher!
We like Miss Sandys class. It was fun and the homework wasn't to hard. Miss Sandy is one of our favorite teachers!

IEW Ancient History
This class was so good for my boys, I'm so proud of how much they have grown in their writing! I as a parent did have to be a support in helping them get their homework done. I don't think most kids coming into this class for the first time, can do the work on their own. Two of my boys were younger for this class, but I needed to put all 3 of my boys together. Marsha and I were in constant communication on how we could make things work for my younger boys. She was so Amazing at helping adapt things to their level and understanding. I would advise other parents to take a hands on approach. Be in communication with your teacher and your children will excel!!
This class was hard and required us to complete a good amount of homework. But I now can write a full 5 page paper and it sounds really good! Even though the class was hard, Mrs.. Marsha always has a good attitude and tries to make things fun for us.

Cooking Around the World
My daughter learned a lot about cooking in this class. I would really recommend this class if your kids want to learn how to cook. She demonstrated her skills to the family by cooking dishes learned in class for the family.
It was a really fun class. I learned a lot. I can now cook lots of new things. I am comfortable trying new recipes and understand the terminology.

This class gives students the opportunity to discuss different structures of governments as well as what works well in governments and what goes poorly. They learn about government operations such as taxes and militaries. Creativity is encouraged through activities such as creating a history of the country, brainstorming new types of government, and creating items like currency and a flag for the country.

Very interesting design for a class. It was up to the students to set the direction, decide what they wanted to do to create a government and select what homework was needed to move forward. I was happy my student learned to communicate in a group setting both in class and online.
He said he really enjoyed exploring the reason behind why we have a government and what makes a "good" government.

My daughter has participated in this class before but this time was asked to step into a leadership role. I honestly thought my introvert was going to say no way, but surprised me with a ecstatic yes. She owned it and loved mentoring some young ladies. STUFF prepares young minds to become leaders.
I love STUFF! Amazing STUFF! Can’t wait to do it again next season. I am also excited that PLANT classes have grown and brought on more classes that I am excited to join this coming year, especially the leaders class.
Student Led
This is an incredible opportunity for teens to learn about the government process in a hands on and interactive way that has really helped my teens grow as individuals and beginners towards leading. They beg to return each year.

I have two kids in this leadership development class and we love this class! They come home very excited about activities they are helping to lead. They are planning events and this class makes it fun yet very educational.
They talk about how much they enjoy going to class and are going to be disappointed when it ends. Both of my kids say they like knowing what is going on with bills in Congress which they learn about in this class.
Lego Builders: Cityscapes
My daughter had a blast in this class. Audrey is nuerodivergent and has a hard time reading and writing at “class level”. I really enjoyed that in this class, she was able to participate fully without any extra accommodations and able to work and socialize with her peers. She also developed a deeper passion for Lego building.
It was good. My favorite part was homebuilds and reviewing them in class with everyone.
This was a great class for my son! He loves playing with legos. This class gave his lego playtime structure and purpose. He loved attending each week!
I loved thinking of new things to create with legos. We had a lot of fun in the class. I learned about new things in my city. I hope to take another Lego class!
Faith, Literature and Harry Potter
I wasn't sure about this class due to subject matter, but we tried it for our daughter and appreciated the thoughtful preparation that helped us understand the lessons to be learned. We learned as a family from our daughter.
She found it to be a little work (she tends to like no work) and thought-provoking and enjoyed it a lot.
This thought-provoking course taught my teens to practice critical thinking skills through studying the Harry Potter series and identifying similarities to other classic literature. One of their favorite high school electives!
Art Classes for Kids
|
My child was reluctant to take an art class, but she ended up producing some wonderful art! I appreciated the various media they used and my favorite was the sculpture my daughter made. The teachers were kind and patient; willing to work with each student as an individual. It was very informative.
The teacher didn't do the work for me, but explained it well.
WeDo 2.0 Robotics
|
This was a great introduction to WeDo 2.0 Lego Robotics. Not only did Lexi and Hunter explain the coding behind WeDo 2.0, but they also taught the kids morse code, as well as emphasizing working as a team. Both my 10yo son AND my 8yo daughter had a great time and really enjoyed the class.
Rex age 10 "I LOVED IT!!! It's fun and it really helps you learn about robotics. The missions were fun and challenging."
Avielle age 8 "It was GREAT!!! If you're interested in building Lego robots, and learning about space, then you should take this class."

The class was fun for my daughter and piqued her learning in a subject for which she has only marginal interest. The instructor is fun and helpful. She came home each time full of excitement about what they made and did that day. She loves the instructor.

The class kept the kids interested and she did some great experiments. She sent home experiments for them to do on their own, too, which were a big hit.
It was fun.

It teaches you about government and is just overall really fun. My favorite thing would be mock leg
It’s a fun way to learn about government with lots of interactive stuff(no pun intended). My favorite thing is mock leg. It was so much fun!
|
|
This is a great introduction into how our state government works. The adults and teens in charge were committed to providing a high quality program and all three of my kids left with knowledge and practical experience that will benefit them for a lifetime.
The activities were very well done and fun to participate in. Mock Legislature was great but I’d would have liked more information about it beforehand because it seemed like everyone assumed we had done Teen Pact and we were a little lost at first. It’s was cool that teenagers were leading it.
|
|
A fantastic leadership class that helps students understand every aspect of voting to creating bills, debating them, what happens on the legislative floor, how the entire mock legislature session works. They even have an opportunity to run for election seats, understanding the role of elected officials and their districts. Ran by student leaders, the students have a great time while learning all the ends and outs.
This is the best class I have ever done. Inspiring to run for an elected official some day. Empowering to dream big and go after it to change the world.

This program was a huge success. Two of my children participated. They were both challenged and looked forward to class each day. It was a lot of fun. I learned about leadership.
The STUFF Legislature is my favorite part.
|
|
This was an excellent in-person alternative to TeenPact 2021. My daughter had a great time learning about and "owning" the legislative process, as the students ran campaigns, held elections, introduced bills and formed committees to pass or "kill" them. She made many new friends. Her activities initiated family conversations about the nuances of the legislative process and gave her a great perspective of what it means to be an informed and involved citizen. THANK YOU for such an amazing event!!
My daughter came home each day smiling, with plenty of stories about her committee experiences and some of the hilarious bills that had been introduced. She looked forward to each new day. She admired the work that the older and more experienced students put into the event and spoke about how kind they were to her and the other students. She especially loved the evening social events and is looking forward to social opportunities in the future with her new friends (particularly dances ;D).

This class has taken my boys from reluctant writers to budding poets! We use to have battles and tears when it would come time for writing, but now my kids are writing poetry and journaling for fun! Georgia showed the kids how learning to write is not only essential, but it is also lot of fun, and we are so grateful to her!
Mrs. Babb was really nice and you learn a bunch of stuff like how to do a concrete poem and acrostic poem.
Mrs. Babb was a very encouraging teacher and this class was super exciting and fun!

This class encouraged my 8 yr old (3rd grader) & 11 yr old (6th grader) to write in ways that were fun and creative. Georgia did a great job of giving feedback to the kids in ways that were positive and my kids looked forward to her class every week. You can see how much Georgia loves teaching because of the ways she interacts with the kids. I would highly recommend this class!
They both looked forward to it every week and enjoyed it!

Make your kids take this class, even if they don't want to!
.I am the student in this case and I wasn't sure I wanted to take this class in the first place. My mom made me take it and I am so glad she did! I thought I was bad at writing essays but it turns out I just needed some guidance. I am a second time alumni to TeenPact this year and I was a bit stressed out about writing the two required essays but now I feel confident that I can get through them. And not only get through them, but do well on them without all of the stress I had before. We've only had two classes so far and I have learned so much already!
USA Geography - Sandy Cannon Fall 2019

Parent: Fun extracurricular class for the upper elementary student! They learned a lot through the study of different kids of maps and it encouraged them to learn all the States!
Student: I had fun leaning about maps!
I memorized all the states!
Introduction to the Sewing Machine - Edie Downs Fall 2019
|
Parent: My daughter looked forward to this class each week and was eager to show me what she had accomplished. Mrs. Downs makes the sewing projects simple enough that students experience success, which is very encouraging.
Your child should take this class!

Fine Art - Deborah Klose Fall 2019

Parent: My daughter had no previous art training and was able to draw a beautiful flower with coloring that looks as though an adult did it. Deborah was a great teacher and very patient and kind!

Students: We had fun!
My favorite part was the puzzles.
TeenPact Prep - Sandy Cannon - Fall 2019

Nature Study - Dr. Jenny Lloyd Strovas - Fall 2019
