ALC Student Given $500 Grip Tape Grant
McKay Ewell, an ALC Business and Media Production Capstone student received his $500 learning challenge grant from Grip Tape this week. Through GripTape, 14-19 year olds can apply to do a project of their own choosing (e.g. learn how to build a bridge, start a business, learn how to 3D print, etc.) and, if accepted, receive $500 to implement it in 10 weeks along with help from a mentor. Grip Tape gives students support to pursue and seize control of their own learning.
In preparing their essay students were asked:
1. Share your passion. Tell us about the topic you want to pursue for your Learning Challenge.
