Space Lab with Elaine Lewis
We are excited to announce a new weekly science lab at the school. Elaine Lewis, a long time staff member at the NASA Goddard Space Flight Center has initiated a Space Lab that this year will focus on the Sun and the Parker Space Probe. This series begin with a tour at Goddard just prior to the end of last school year. Elaine has traveled all over and was responsible for developing curriculum to explain the missions and the science process and discoveries developed through NASA. She regaled the students with stories from her Goddard sponsored trip to Utqiagvik (also known as Barrow Alaska) the northern most populated place in the United States and home of the Inuit people. From there, they documented and filmed the auroras of the Northern Lights. The students are very engaged and excited about this new feature of The Community School.
