John Ericsson Middle School 126

🚀 As we close out our Space Camp journey, we want to take a moment to reflect on an unforgettable experience.

Our STEAM Team returned home with new knowledge, lasting memories, and a deeper appreciation for science, technology, engineering, arts, and mathematics. From astronaut training and mission simulations to exploring the history of space exploration, our students embraced every opportunity to learn and grow.

A heartfelt thank you to our PTA, school staff, families, community supporters, and donors whose generosity helped make this trip possible. Your support allowed our students to dream bigger, reach higher, and experience opportunities they will carry with them for years to come.

The adventure may be over, but the inspiration is just beginning. 🌎✨🚀
