WHAT WOULD YOU DO?

A School Problem-Solving Challenge

Imagine you're part of a student leadership team at Riverview School. Something went wrong in the cafeteria. Everyone wants a quick punishment, but true leadership requires understanding the problem. What would you do?

Complex Problems Deserve Thoughtful Solutions

United by Creativity designs experiences that provide opportunities for students to practice skills reflected in Missouri Learning Standards across ELA, Speaking & Listening, Social Studies/Civics, and Problem Solving.

Analysis & ELA
Separating what happened from possible causes, evaluating evidence, and communicating reasoning.
Civic Reasoning
Considering rules, responsibility, community impact, and institutional decision-making.
Restorative Process
Addressing harm, taking responsibility, and repairing relationships when appropriate.
Iteration
Recognizing when an initial response doesn't fully resolve a problem and revising the approach.

“Young people need opportunities to practice leadership. Not just reading about it. Practicing it.”

Your support helps create experiences where young people can ask questions, work through complex problems, collaborate with others, and turn ideas into meaningful action.

HELP CREATE THE OPPORTUNITY.

United by Creativity gives young people opportunities to turn curiosity into knowledge, ideas into action, and action into meaningful change.
