My Project
Please support our students so they can be the most effective scholars possible.
Help students see the wonders of the everyday as we explore light, motion and energy this year!
I want to engage kids with a hands-on discovery of the principles that govern their daily lives. Students are going to see how you can split light into many colors, and discover how spinning can help with stability. They will be learning how we graph motion and the basics of data collection. They'll learn how we define a calorie and see how energy can be transformed.
Nearly all students from low‑income households
Data about students' economic need comes from the National Center for Education Statistics, via our partners at MDR Education. Learn more
