Congratulations  

7th and 8th Grade Science Fair Winners!

On March 15th, The Christ School's 7th and 8th Grade students came together in Yowell Hall for the annual Science Fair. Students in 7th grade were tasked with choosing topics related to life science, and 8th grade students chose physical science topics. Middle school science teacher Mrs. Kuplen was very impressed with all of the work.

A BIG congratulations to the overall winner, Becca Pulsifer! Becca's project, "Feel the G-force", included an awesome mini-model roller coaster that she used to test the G force as compared to a full size coaster. Way to go, Becca!

2nd place - Hallie Millard for "Hand Eye Hoops"
