Baldwin students participate in elective fair, encouraging student involvement

Posted

Baldwin High School recently organized an impressive elective fair to provide students with a chance to explore a wide array of elective courses available for the upcoming school year.

From professional-looking videos to decorated poster boards, each department arranged tables around the perimeter of the Commons, where teachers and students offered detailed information about course offerings, expectations, and the unique experiences associated with each elective.

According to a release sent to the Herald, the highlight of the event was the level of student involvement. At each elective table, at least one student currently enrolled in the course was present to describe the day-to-day lessons, projects, and the impact these classes have had on their learning and interests, providing assistance to their peers, allowing them to make informed decisions as they prepare to select courses for the next academic year.

This student-driven event also aligned with the district’s emphasis on future-ready competencies and “students as producers,” fostering a deeper and more meaningful educational experience.

“The elective fair underscores our commitment to student voice, choice, and engagement, while highlighting the depth and diversity of programs available at Baldwin High School,” Stephen Saravia, assistant principal for guidance, said in the release.
