Channel 8 was here to interview one of our 6th grade students, Caden Fox, for their 20 Under 20 Digital News series. Caden was a semi-finalist in the Future Engineers LLC name NASA's Mars 2020 Rover contest! The Future Engineers LLC announced the 156 semi-finalists and Caden was one of those semi-finalists. Students from grades K - 12 received this challenge at the beginning of the school year. Submissions were based on the appropriateness and significance of the name, originality of the name, and quality of the essay for the semi-finalist round. It will air in late February. Great job, Caden!

Dr. Julie Angle PhD, Assistant Professor of Science Education at Oklahoma State University paid a visit to Mrs. Rahn’s STEM classroom to teach students about how “Science is a way of knowing how scientific knowledge is generated”. She used various demonstrations to show students that as scientists we can be biased because of our experiences and background. Dr. Angle taught us that science is a human endeavor and asked students how do we overcome biases? THANK YOU Dr. Angle! @OSUEHA

Mrs. Tietz's class have been studying the organelles in the cell. They have spent the week going over each organelle and the differences between plant and animal cells. This project was done completely outside of school. They had the option to make a 3D cell, cell factory in a shoe box, cell t-shirt, cell island brochure, or a mobile. They could use any supplies found around their house, including food! We have some great projects!
