Yesterday at Open House the Astronomical Society made an appearance, we had the opportunity to view the Sun, Moon and even Jupiter and its moons! One of the Astronomical members even instructed us on how he put together his very own telescope with materials from Home Depot! Sounds like a spring break project to me. Thank you to all of the parents and students who came last night and to City Year for a great Mario themed math night.
