Freehold Township High School will transform a traditional classroom into a project-based learning environment in which students are empowered to develop significant collaborative and communication skills leading to increased student engagement and academic achievement, according to the press release.

Teachers will be able to reserve the “Think Tank” to support project-based learning, with students participating in active learning experiences that bridge all disciplines of study.

Through project-based learning, staff will support students in developing a deeper understanding of content, improving the skills necessary for collaborative learning, and applying knowledge and skills within college and career settings.

Through the support of the OceanFirst Foundation, the school will purchase interactive technology tools to equip the classroom for 21st century learning, according to the press release.

“I am thankful to both the OceanFirst Foundation for awarding us this grant and to Dr. David Bleakley, assistant principal, for his work preparing the grant application. The financial award will go a long way toward providing technology resources for our new innovative, collaborative ‘Think Tank’ space,” Principal Elizabeth Higley said.

The OceanFirst Foundation provides grants to organizations that meet community needs within the OceanFirst Bank footprint.
