Calhoun Middle School (grades 5-8) students experienced an exciting day at HSTA's 3rd Annual Science Day Friday, everything from bugs, germs, and owl pellets to "barf" bags, bones and a planetarium.
The roving health, science and technology exposition took students from one end of the school to the other to observe, experience and participate in the science projects.
"The kids really got into it," said sponsor Tammy Yoak. "It has been an exciting day."
Likely the most enthusiasm was generated in an afternoon chemistry
demonstration where HSTA members and Glenville College students "blew up" a few things in the school's auditorium.
