On Wednesday we had our rocket launch! It  was so incredible to see all of the rockets the 8th Grade worked on. Some of them went higher than others, but the variety was incredible. There were minion rockets, Batman Rockets and even ones with aliens! It was so nice to step out of the classroom and watch the launch!

Thanks to class photographer Sam P. for the rocket photos.  Apologies to Grace, the camera didn't register your shots!!
