My Project

The Sutter science lab needs an update of our science posters as well as a few new learning opportunities.

The science lab will be benefitting from this donors choose by receiving up to date science posters.

We will learn about how our class crayfish and fish provide the nutrients to grow plants. We will also have an update our ceiling solar system display.

The whole school comes through the science lab weekly. Making it a fun and exciting place to learn will benefit all of our students. Thank you for your support!
