STEM Scientific Research Balsa Wood Bridge Challenge
Balsa wood, glue, and a whole lot of engineering. 🌉 Students used research-based designs to build balsa wood bridges, then put them to the test for load and strength. Small sticks, big lessons in structural engineering.

STEM AP Research Visit to UGA Griffin — 🔬🌾 Our STEM AP Research students visited UGA Griffin and got face time with real scientists in plant pathology, entomology, food innovation, and crop genetics. Huge thanks to Dr. Jake Fountain, Dr. James Gratzek, Dr. Saptarshi Ghosh, Ms. Ashley Biles, and Abdullah Al Maruf for showing our students what research actually looks like. Also thank you to for setting up this amazing trip.
