Wildcat Weekly

The Wildcat Tank is a fun showcase where students use STEM to invent a product that improves everyday life. Each student/group presents their idea through a presentation board with drawings (front, back, side, and isometric views), the product’s purpose, and key features. Students/groups are not required to have a physical model of their product. The idea/pitch is what matters the most!

On the day of the competition, students will arrive with their presentation materials, and one by one, present their product idea to a panel of 3-5 different judges from professional STEM careers! The judges will rate their overall pitch through a rubric that looks at your pitch, product idea, overall presentation, and more! Scan the QR codes below to either register or gain more information on joining the competition!

We want to see more families riding their bikes to Altamont Creek. That’s why we’ve invited the

BikeMobile to provide free tune ups & repairs for parents and children.

The BikeMobile can fix flat tires, adjust brakes and gears, and even replace broken or worn out

parts like chains, seats, and tires. The only thing it can’t do is replace missing wheels or gears.

While the mechanics work on your bike they’ll explain how to keep it running smooth.

Bike or no bike, everyone is welcome to attend to learn about maintenance, safety, and more!

This is a first come, first serve event.

Bring your bikes outside the Altamont Creek MPR on Monday, March 9th between 1:30-4:00pm. We look forward to seeing you

there!

A Message from Right At School

Parents, let's talk about those extra hours in your child's day.There are 24 hours total- about 10-12 spent sleeping and 6 hours in school.That leaves around 6 precious hours ...and that's where the fun begins!

At RAS,we turn afterschool time and school breaks into meaningful,screen free adventures your child will actually look forward to.

Before School: Before the bell rings, let your child dive into a morning of adventure, creativity, and excitement with Right Club’s Before School program! Drop your kid off when it works for your schedule! Our programs are ﬂexible so kids can join in whenever they arrive, so they can start their day in a fun and easy-going way. Kids enjoy different activity stations like Right Moves fun fitness and Inspiration Stations where they can exercise their creativity.

After School: During Right Club After School, hosted on-site at your kid's school, kids have time to get homework done, then take part in games, crafts, and STEM challenges that keep them engaged in learning (and off their screens). Our 2025-26 curriculum offers 19 brand-new journeys, each with countless activities that go beyond the classroom to help your child discover who they are and what they’re passionate about.

Break Camps (Winter Break, Spring Break, and Non-School Days): When school is out, fun is IN with RAS Camps! Take part in a week-long adventure full of STEM activities, learning challenges, and wacky art projects. RAS Camps are flexible. Your family can pick the number of days you need care, and drop off and pick up when it suits your schedule.
