We believe in amplifying student voices on any platform, and we believe the world should listen to what each and every student has to say. Here, we do so through video—a medium that many students embrace every single day. Watch the videos, and you’ll find the creativity and confidence of these students shining through, whether in poems about pumpkin pie or persuasive pieces that examine inflation.
