What would you do with $1000 to enhance our school?

Students are encouraged to participate in our inaugural event by developing an idea on how to spend $1,000 to enhance GCPS!  The Phoenix Nest idea is a great example of an initiative that encourages student creativity and one that encourages the entrepreneurial spirit. Students can work alone or in a team of up to 4 people. Submission Packages are available in the office, on every Google Classroom, and a PDF version is attached here Project Submission

Their idea should:

• Benefit a large number of students,
• Solve a problem or meet a need in the school,  
• Be enjoyed over a period of time beyond the current school year.
