Project Edison, the exemplary project for Hoffman-Boston Elementary, promotes excellence in education through communication arts. The 2020-21 theme was podcasting. Learners shared stories only they can tell, hearing the stories of their peers and community members, and meeting communication arts goals such as:

• Raising the level of enthusiasm and engagement in the learning process
• Supporting Virginia Standards of Learning (SOLs)
• Improving speaking, writing and presentation skills through communication experiences
• Exploring diverse perspectives and stories
• Building proficiency in technology skills to communicate their ideas and viewpoints with others

In the 2021-22 school year, we will continue with podcasting and spend a portion of the year science-telling, telling stories about science that fascinate and interest our learners!
