Science Fair/Science Fun
Survey and recap
| Thank you so much for attending our Science Night that took place last Friday, 1/22. Our 5th and 6th graders did a great job of displaying and explaining their science fair projects. Many talented parents and a big sister shared their passion for science in very different ways; from handwashing/germbusting to moon/mars gazing through an amazing telescope. Several community experts also donated their time and talent to create slime, fingerprint our students, teach us about monks seals and honu, and other exciting activities. 6th Grade parents worked hard selling dinner to raise money for graduation expenses. PTSA graciously funded Dr. Gadget, which allowed your kids to create and build bizarre floating and gliding objects.
The cooperative spirit and knowledge sharing was truly amazing. We are grateful for all of our volunteers!
Please take a short anonymous survey by clicking here. We want to continue to improve the events that we offer here at school and value your opinion.
