There’s always something to craft or explore at the SS WOW! Tomorrow we will be at the Cesar Chavez Library from 3:30pm to 5pm. Here some students made a wooden crate and motored fans to keep cool in the heat☀️🔥

Happy International Day of Women & Girls in Science! It’s important to recognize that about 1/3rd of scientists are women, and we encourage all girls to see how STEM can be part of their life!
