Some of our students wrapped up their quarter elective today with an exciting challenge at De Sabla Lake! 🛶🌊
Over the past few weeks, these students have been learning about the science behind boat design. They applied what they learned by designing, building, and testing their own cardboard boats — and today was race day!
The girls’ team took the win with the fastest boat on the water. Better luck next year boys!
Well done to all the students for their creativity, teamwork, and perseverance throughout this project. What an incredible way to end the quarter!
