👩🔬 The STEM girls had a blast visiting Carthage College’s Engineering Department! They designed parachutes to keep an egg safe during a drop—testing their aerodynamics skills and creativity🪂🥚 Lunch on campus was the perfect way to wrap up a fun, hands-on day in engineering. 💡💪
A big thank you to Carthage College for hosting us and to SCJ for funding our program and making these special excursions possible! 🙌 #SCJCares









We welcomed educators from the Museum of Science and Industry, who led a hands-on lesson about microplastics in our water systems. Students tested samples from both tap water and Lake Michigan, learning firsthand what it takes to clean and filter our water. 💧
We’re looking forward to continuing our exploration this spring with a visit to the Blue Paradox exhibit at the museum! 🌊
