2013 Family STEM Night
STEM Night 2013 was lots of fun for everyone! The evening was kicked of with the rocket launches and telescopes outside. We also had the CSU physics display in the gym with fascinating and interactive science experiments. The Star Lab was also a huge hit allowing families to enjoy a star-gazing experience in this portable planetarium. There were also clubs and students from CSU to demonstrate and provide hands-on examples of electronics, engineering, chemistry, veterinary medicine, as well as lots of other hands-on activities in every classroom - exploring liquids, air, turning cream into butter, and much more!
