About Us
Our crew consists of 5th graders from Mrs. Bennett and Mrs. Toney’s class from Wallace Elementary School. Collectively, the students decided to name their miniboat Survivor by a democratic vote.
Our miniboat is built to ensure students learn maritime basics through science, art, math, and history. We work with Washington learning standards to provide an educational experience that enhances what the students are already learning. Most of the students at the beginning of the program were unfamiliar with the maritime world but by the end will have intimate knowledge of maritime terms, science, and careers.
Everyone is super excited about tracking their miniboat to see where it goes and think it will land in Japan!
Thank you to Norton Lilly International for spearheading our deployment! Also, a big thanks to our many donors who made this project possible!
