ES Girl-Powered STEAM Event

Over 40 Gr2-5 girls participated in the first annual Girl-Powered STEAM event last Saturday from 9am-12pm where parents got to work with students through different hands-on activities. There were 4 stations including lava lamp, rocket launching, robot coding and balloon boat building that were all planned and led by HS students. Special thanks to Libby Pool, Sarah Steward, Mark Marshall, and Cindy Brickerd for all their help and support! Watch the video of the event here.
