School is right around the corner with the first day August 14th. Students are welcome to reuse school supplies from previous years!
Ms. Martha took a group of students to the MIT STEM Day in Lamar. They explored 3-D pens, made cement art, and much more.
The students who met their AR reading summer goals took a trip to the Denver Nature and Science Museum. They also watched the IMAX on future cities. They even found Baca County on the map in the dinosaur exhibit. It was a fun day and they can't wait to go back and explore more of the museum.
