Multicultural Night - John Green Elementary | |
|
Project Catalyst is a student-run non profit organization created by students at Dublin High School with the mission to help provide students the necessary platform and education to be exposed to different fields in STEM and particularly engineering. Project Catalyst is organizing “Engineering Extravaganza” workshops at Fallon Middle School focused on teaching students Grades 5-9 who aspire careers in STEM; we will teach basic principles of physics along with mechanical/structural engineering concepts. This is surely an enriching learning experience that allows students to delve into and answer questions they may be pondering about the world around them like "What forces allow us to live in the world around us?” or “What components allow bridges to work?” or even “What exactly occurs in a collision between two vehicles?” etc.
For further information, please view the flyer and scan the QR code to sign up to partake in a session; this will be a fun and amazing experience for your student and we would greatly appreciate your attendance and interest in this program!
