The School Time Capsule Project

The open source School Time Capsule Project started in 2005 focused on dropout prevention. Goals achieved, it expanded to include family history and parental involvement from pre-k through graduation. By 2018/19 it was in 20 Dallas ISD schools. Motivated by annual letters from parents, and documenting their own life dreams from 3rd grade on, student achievement soared. The 8th and 12th grade letters plan 10-years into the future. They stay in the Time Capsule Vault for 10-year class reunions.
