From 1:45 pm to 2:15 pm the entire school went to the track to participate in viewing the partial solar eclipse together. We are grateful to the Elementary PTO for purchasing safety viewing glasses for each student and staff member. Several parents and grandparents attended our viewing party, too. Students were willing to follow the procedures to enjoy the event safely. When looking up at the sun they had their glasses on and were amazing at what they saw. Principal Fuger played music with a moon, sun, and eclipse theme to add to the fun. We enjoyed this opportunity to experience science together!
