My Project
What is a better way to bring a school community together than investing in science and experiencing the total eclipse together? For many of our elementary students at my school, this is their first time witnessing a total eclipse. The next time a total eclipse will occur will be in 20 years. Given this information, this is a huge experience and opportunity for our school to embrace science as a community. Our school wide goal this year is, in fact, to focus more on science. By providing each student in my school eclipse glasses, we would be able to investigate, explore, and help create future scientists.
