Our 21 Summer Sparks rocketry students launched their rockets yesterday for their families, classmates, and staff! Each student built their own rocket throughout the week while learning principles of flight and physics. We hope the experience and thrill of seeing their creation fly has ignited a lifelong interest in STEM!
