TRAFFIC REMINDER: If you are dropping off and picking up, this needs to happen at the back of the building. Please approach the school from the VA cemetery side so you don't block traffic or interfere with the flow of buses into or out of the school. And, if you wait till 3:30 to pick up your student, there is no wait and you can pull right up to the back of the school. We have supervision until 4 pm and it is no trouble if you want to avoid traffic.

Career/STEM Lab:
After learning about jobs in the aviation field yesterday, students made an FGP-9 Plate Glider. We did five test flights and recorded our distance. Data from these test flights will be used to work on range, mean, median, and mode.

Students are using the Design Process to create a Hoop Glider. Using data from test flights, students can then modify their designs and identify the best characteristics for a successful glider.
