Mad Scientist's Day was awesome on Friday. Mad Scientist's Day is an annual tradition for our science department. All students took part in a trio of interactive activities during their science class to help spark their curiosity and interest in the world of science. Thank you to the parents that came to help ensure this day was a success for our students.
