My Project

Help our school create an unforgettable experience for our students and their families. We will be having multiple STEAM stations at our family STEAM night. At these stations not only will families be creating/building fun projects they will also learn about careers tied to the activity. At one of our stations we will have an actual female rocket scientist speaking at our school. We would like to be able to blast off rockets with students as well. We were able to purchase the engines, but we would love for students to have their own rocket to take home afterwards too. This an experience that wouldn't be possible without your help. If you are able to contribute, our students, families, and staff would be so grateful. Thank you!
