Imaginaction, Inc. is a non-profit organization founded by Peter, that in the past has run the Pacific Northwest Program. This program is a three week summer school in Milwaukee, followed by a week-long trip to Olympic National Park, WA. The goal is to give urban students, who have had little opportunity to travel, the chance to see some exciting parts of the country.
Imaginaction has not taken the Pacific Northwest trip in the last couple of years, because we've had schools commit to running the program with us, only to back out during the fall, when we need to recruit students. Because of this, we are refocusing our efforts in different ways. One way is to support students as they start university courses, thus the letter above.
Also, in my fourth grade room during the school year, I run a box project that gets kids inspired by math. Imaginaction has run the box project with other students in the area, to show them there's a way to enjoy education and teach them math and problem-solving skills.
