Fifth Graders Learn About Science and Hard Work

Submitted by adrian.rowley on
The fifth graders had an opportunity to go on a field trip to BYU on Friday, October 27. While they were there they learned about magnetism, electricity, and other science related topics. They were then privileged to go to the student athletic department and meet some of the football players and learn from them what it takes to be an athlete; they learned the value of hard work and dedication. They had a lot of fun and enjoyed the campus environment. Image removed.
