5th grade traveled to Great Falls to attend Starbase on the National Guard base. They had a great time coding Spike robots, learning about fingerprints and then graphing fingerprint data. The icing on the cake was getting to tour the inside of a C-130 aircraft and talk with crew members. We are so lucky our students get to take part in this program!
