Sixth graders tested their naval engineering skills in STEAM this week by designing hulls for sailboats. After watching a video that explained flat bottom, deep V, and pontoon hulls, partners created and tested different hulls to see which would travel best in our "canals".

This week, our 6th graders showed their citizenship by creating a special banner in honor of this Friday’s high school football game celebrating our Veterans. Today, they proudly presented it to our very own RTC coordinator, Mr. Pendell, who is not only a leader in our school but also a Veteran. We are so thankful for the Veterans in our community and the example they set for our students every day.
