Children’s Kiva Montessori School would like to thank the 15 incredible local innovators, engineers and designers who participated in the school’s 2015 Innovation Fair as members of the professional review panel. This dedicated group of volunteers interviewed students about their innovative projects, provided professional feedback, and participated in a panel discussion about their creative work, failures and successes. Their time, insight, enthusiasm and feedback was so inspiring for our students and school community.
