Kamya Rogers and Khayla Mitchell's Capstone

Posted by Kamya Cox-Rogers in Senior Capstone · Burrows-Stone · e1 on Sunday, May 21, 2023 at 11:58 pm

This capstone focuses on paying kindness forward both within and outside of the Science Leadership Academy @Beeber community while passing out bracelets and pursuing an Instagram account for the project as well. To both Khayla and I this was more a movement and it was also seen as an escape making the bracelets as this part of the overall process was the most therapeutic and completely free for peers and members of various communities to support. Our main focus was getting people in our community to tell us what kindness meant to them. The best part of this entire experience definitely has to be brightening the days of those who have been gifted a bracelet to show our kindness as well as pay it forward with empathy and various acts of selflessness, not to mention this was a completely non-profit organization. As the end of the 2023 school year ends for seniors such as myself, I have understood on a more personal level the importance of kindness and simply paying it forward. The concept of paying kindness forward gained popularity through the phrase “pay it forward,” which was popularized by Catherine Ryan Hyde’s novel and subsequent film adaptation, both titled “Pay It Forward.” The idea behind it is to promote altruism, empathy, and compassion in society by encouraging individuals to perform acts of kindness without expecting anything in return, with the hope that the recipients will continue the cycle by helping others. By paying kindness forward, you contribute to a positive ripple effect, spreading acts of goodwill throughout the community. It emphasizes the power of small gestures and highlights the potential to make a difference in someone else’s life.

Excessive Heat In Philadelphia Homes

Posted by Kamya Cox-Rogers in Environmental Science · Sasso-Chryst · A on Thursday, April 27, 2023 at 2:48 pm

During the summer, homes in specific areas of Philadelphia tend to face extreme temperatures due to the outdoor heat as well as a lack of a reliable cooling system. Many health risks and utility issues present themselves during these times because of the overall structure and build of homes specifically in lower North Philadelphia, and West Philadelphia.

The earth’s systems affect each other where the atmosphere, biosphere, geosphere, and hydrosphere depend on one another for our benefit in life. For example, they overlap and are all also interconnected. Natural disasters are a great example of how the earth’s systems interact with each other as each type of natural disaster impacts one or more of the earth’s systems. Knowing this, safety can be prioritized through any natural disaster as we know what to look for in the earth’s systems to identify danger in climates and shifts in the geosphere. Humans can limit combustion and preserve the only fossil fuels we have left to benefit the atmosphere because it is crucial to how we will continue to live. This project has been easy to complete any kind of interesting as we were able to choose our own natural disaster and partners.
