Mr. Benn Sullins says….
“7th and 8th grade girls had a blast at the Expanding Your Horizons STEM field trip yesterday. Students had a jam-packed day with activities related to genetics, engineering bridges, earthquake resistant structures, microcontroller programming, airfoil design, and USGS mapping.
They were then entertained with demonstrations in chemistry and countless door-prizes.
Mrs. Keaton deserves a good dose of recognition for all the hard work she put in to make this happen.”
