Go Kart: Design & Build
.svg)
I designed and built a gas powered reverse trike go-kart. To complete this project, I had to learn how to design a go-kart, find supplies, request funding, and then build it by welding, engineering, problem-solving, and finishing the metal, and finally, driving! In the end, the go-kart was able to hit a top speed of about 40mph.
Learning to Fly
I will get my pilots license, and give a presentation on the process.

This project is an interactive slideshow showcasing different artworks inspired by Shakespeare's plays such as "Hamlet", "Macbeth", "Romeo and Juliet", and "A Midsummer Night's Dream".

Avalon really gave me the tools to be a productive adult, advocate for myself and take learning into my own hands. When I was going through middle school I really struggled with public schooling, so when I made the move to Avalon I learned how to excel at what I do best and use project management skills to my advantage in my future.

Relationships, small learning community, inclusive community.
Families
During my time at Avalon I was always encouraged to learn in a way that was most interesting to me. The focus on independent learning and the guiding of advisors on what could be an interesting approach to learning subjects made Avalon the best school that I have attended. Avalon was a great mixture of structured and independent learning that allowed me to take interesting courses on historical fiction, but also let me take topics into my own hands such as spending a year learning college math and working on making guides to help teach math to my peers in my advisory.

Our daughter has gained confidence and maturity and is excited to learn.
