Technology/Skills needed to complete project: Web-based forms,inventory management, order delivery, team management

Project: The goal of our project is to supply middle school students with hygiene supplies in a way that is anonymous and private. Students complete an online form to request the supplies and they are discreetly delivered to their locker or a trusted staff member. So far, we have made over 40 deliveries. We need help evaluating our project and finding ways to expand and improve our processes.

Technology/Skills needed to complete project: Photography and videography using Cannon and Nikon camera

Project: O We are working on the Valley View Annual Report to the Public. In this project, we are taking pictures and videos of teachers and students so the School Board can get a glimpse of what happens at school. Once we do that, we will edit footage and photos in order to make a video for the School Board. We would love to learn how to edit videos, so we can make a professional finished product!
