Newton South’s DaVinci Program Launches for Sophomores

The Newton South HS Lion’s Roar has published an article on the launch of DaVinci, the school’s flexible, interdisciplinary STEAM program that started for a cohort of sophomores last week.  The students will study Biochemistry (over two years), Theory of Creativity, and a new Math 2 course — all in an open, project-based, collaborative environment.  Lab space, including movable furniture and whiteboards, was funded by the Newton Schools Foundation and the PTSO.  Each year, as students progress through the program, another cohort of sophomores will be added.
