Students at Jenkins Middle and Burdine Elementary had an exciting visit on Friday from the Brick Mobile and Duane Keaton!
Through a hands-on STEM challenge, students explored real-world engineering principles by designing and building towers strong enough to withstand earthquake-like forces. Activities like this spark curiosity, build problem-solving skills, and introduce students to future careers in engineering and STEM fields.
We’re excited to bring this engaging experience to more Neighborhood schools soon! 🚀
