There's nothing quite like the energy inside the P

There's nothing quite like the energy inside the Parrish House! Our staff are constantly inspired by the fun, excitement, and genuine learning that happens within our creative space, engineering studio, and test lab. Seeing kids dive into hands-on projects, build, test, and discover without the pressure of expectations is truly amazing. The result? Unbridled creativity, genuine excitement, and deep learning that sticks. It's a truly unique and powerful experience.
