🚀 6th Grade STEM Adventure at Scobee Planetarium 🌌
On Thursday, our 6th grade students embarked on an unforgettable journey to the Scobee Planetarium, where they immersed themselves in hands-on STEM experiences. From launching into a simulated mission to Mars to exploring a variety of space-related careers, students were engaged, curious, and full of wonder. The visit sparked new interests and opened doors to future possibilities in science, technology, engineering, and math. We’re proud to see our young explorers dreaming big and reaching for the stars!
