For this #WayBackWednesday, we are highlighting a memorable student agency IB PYP project from our "Sharing the Planet" unit. 🌎
The Central Idea: The human use of natural resources affects access to resources and environmental sustainability. 💧🚙
Our students took the lead on this interactive project. They created two boards, one with natural resources and the other with man-made resources. By categorizing these materials themselves, our students explored complex resource systems in a meaningful, tangible way.
Moments like these show the true power of the International Baccalaureate framework. We love seeing our students develop the critical thinking skills needed to become responsible global citizens.

Our hearts are bursting with pride as summer at The Roig Academy comes to a close with our Summer IB Exhibitions! 🌟
Over the past few weeks, our incredible students have taken full ownership of their learning, inquiring deeply into the world around them to present these beautiful showcases.
Through our IB Primary Years Programme (PYP) transdisciplinary themes, our young learners explored:
- Who we are: Discovering ourselves through the lens of the five senses.🧏♂️👀
- How the world works: Investigating the wonder of animals and their natural habitats.🦁🐢
- Sharing the planet: Understanding our responsibility through the magic of water cycles.💧🌍
- How we organize ourselves: Working collaboratively to design and build a community neighborhood.🏡✨
Watching these students grow from curious learners into confident global citizens has been the absolute highlight of our season.
Thank you to our amazing students for sharing your passion, creativity, and brilliance with us. You are the future!

Under the IB PYP theme “How we organize ourselves,” our students explored the central idea that communities function when people take on roles and responsibilities that benefit everyone.
To bring their learning to life, the students came together as a community to build their very own neighborhood model. Through this collaborative, hands-on project, these young learners designed and constructed streets, trees, houses, buildings, stores, and even a beach, gaining a deeper understanding of spatial organization and civic responsibility.
We are so proud of their hard work, critical thinking, and community awareness.

There is nothing more rewarding than watching our students grow up and return home to inspire the next generation. A rising senior at St. Brendan, we are happy to have her back for a second summer!
We were absolutely thrilled to welcome back one of our alumnae as a summer volunteer. From her early days in preschool to her graduation from The Roig Academy, she was right back in the classroom helping our current students thrive.
Thank you for your dedication and for being such an amazing role model! 🐦⬛📚

Signature School Events
“Ourselves” Art Installation
As we explore one of the IB Transdisciplinary Themes “How We Express Ourselves,” students are inquiring into ways to express their feelings, ideas, values, and beliefs in ways that demonstrate their appreciation for the world around them.
Students were encouraged to reflect and represent a pose which best represents their uniqueness and individuality. Poses depict a wide range of self-expression and nonverbal communication. The vibrant colors communicate a variety of moods, emotions, and feelings, all of which help our students understand themselves, and appreciate others.
The World Cardboard Regatta
The World Cardboard Regatta project is the culmination of our students’ work. We have been able to bring life and meaning to many aspects of History, Geography, Science.
While in their groups, students have engaged in the inquiry process in order to explore, research and report on their individualized summative projects. We have facilitated opportunities for students to come together in mixed grade levels to, share their ideas, conclusions, and problem solve for The Roig Academy World Cardboard Regatta.
Our Sky of Gratitude
The Roig Academy students have replicated the Luxembourg Swings Art Installation to bring that sense of happiness to our school on this Thanksgiving Celebration. This art installation also includes a message of gratitude through a painting or poem.
The importance of showing gratitude comes from the actual definition of gratitude. It is an affirmation of goodness. We affirm that there are good things in the world, gift, and benefits we’ve received. When we look at life as a whole, gratitude encourages us to identify some goodness in our life.
“Jenni set forth realistic goals for our boys and monitored their progress from beginning to end.”
