Attention:  Parents and Scholars,

Science Club is officially open!  Every Tuesday afternoon from 3:15 - 4:15 we will explore the outer reaches of the galaxy and everything in between.  We will tackle those challenging subjects that tend to be gray areas of understanding.  Furthermore, our scholars will have an opportunity to enrich their science, technology, math and engineering skills as well.  Sign up in Mr. Greene's class.  See you there!
