In Ms. Riggin's Science classes, students collaborated to create earthquake-resistant structures. The structures were tested at two different earthquake intensities.

As a part of the 7th-grade STEAM class, students designed and built parachutes to maximize drag or air resistance. They made modifications after each test to increase drag.

Wise words from our school nurse, Mrs. Granmoe!❤️
