Friends, families, and faculty are all welcome for this celebration and night sky tour.

Junior students participated in a pumpkin STEM challenge.
The students had to design and build a pumpkin stand that could hold a medium-sized pumpkin. The students had to purchase materials and work with teammates to create the tallest, cheapest, and functional stand they could.
Hands-on lessons make learning more interesting and transfers it to long-term memory.
Mrs. Loya is an integral part of our amazing Shorthorn educators! Thank you for all you do.
