Third Grade Fashion Frenzy: Celebrating the 100th Day with Project Runway!

The challenge was simple but creative: to mark the 100th day of school, each third grader had to design and create an outfit using 100 of their favorite items. From collectible cards and sweet treats, students used their imaginations to create unique and eye-catching designs.

Project Runway is not only a fun and creative outlet for our third grade, but also teaches them important skills like problem-solving and perseverance. (And who knows, we may even see some of these young designers on the real Project Runway someday!)

As the show began, pairs of third graders danced down from the stage and past rows of their Lower School peers—showing off their handmade outfits with confidence and style. The designs were as unique as the students, including outfits featuring 100 buttons, 100 photos of siblings, and even 100 photos of Taylor Swift!

But the 100th Day of School celebrations didn’t stop there! Lower School students of all grades took on Mrs. Brady’s 100th Day of School Mathletics Challenge, kindergarteners dressed like 100-year-olds, first graders took part in a 100th Day of School activity in the gym, and second graders wrote common phrases they heard from their teachers 100 times a day!
