Trip Elem. Family STEM Night 2014-04-17

17 April, 2014 (19:54) | Events, Outreach | By: tramakers

This was the rescheduled STEM night since the original event was cancelled because of the bad weather in January. What a night :-) !! 900+ Students and parents attended the event and we did not have a minute of rest. Problem solving stations throughout the school and for as long as the clouds stayed away, parents and students could take a look at the sun through our solar scopes, and when the clouds covered the skies, look at some pine cones in some distant trees. Inside they learned about Mars and the Rover Curiosity and how scientist study what rocks and sand on Mars are made of. This school is producing some real astro scientists!!!
