TV/Film students had a fantastic time filming our Design Thinking Class at American Dream! Our Cardinal even had a dance-off with Angry Birds "Red"! "Bird Bowl 2025" and more exciting WTV content at American Dream will air soon on the WTV_Network YouTube channel!
Mr. DeBlasio’s Design Thinking class returned to the American Dream to present their many ideas to the Coca-Cola Marketing team. While presenting, they learned they were right on the mark with their ideas on “Prizes/Rewards”, “Big Snow”, “Dreamworks and Amusement”, and the Special Olympics. Hopefully, some of these will be put to good use! Great experience for our students!
