Pingry Favorites Students Teach Virtual Summer Courses In partnership with Big Blue Summer Academics, Alesia Paliwoda ’21 was the first Pingry student to offer not one, but two virtual courses of her own design this past summer: Introduction to Architecture and Introduction to Engineering. In the former, she asked her students to “dimension” their homes, build a model, and draw additional views (top, front, and side). Similarly, fellow rising seniors Claire Keller ’21, Caeley Feeney ’21, and Elisabeth Korn ’21 offered rising K-Grade 5 students a Summer Reading Enrichment program.
