Welcome to the 2019-2020 school year! We are so excited to provide your students with some awesome STEM activities this year. Here is a current infographic from Scholastic that helps explain the importance of STEM education.

The Atlanta Braves Foundation conducted a follow up interview regarding the grant that funded our Ozobots and showed the linked video at the teacher appreciation game in April. 

Here is the family challenge for March. It is due on or before Friday, April 12th!

The 2-5 campus was in for quite a surprise at the end of January when the Cobb County Schools Education Foundation and Blooper, the Atlanta Braves mascot, stopped by to award a grant for $2,398 towards the purchase of Ozobots for the STEM room. There was quite a bit of screaming...I mean cheering involved!

Thank you to all the teachers, parents, and community members who participated in the King Springs Stem Night on January 24th. A great time was had by all!

We had a super successful science fair this year! We are so proud of the number of students who chose to enter a project for judging. The top two projects from 3rd, 4th, and 5th grades will move on to compete in the district level science fair in February. Class projects from grades 2-4 are in the slideshow below and you can find individual student project pictures under the tab for each grade level. K-1 class projects will be on display in the K-1 learning commons on Thursday, January 24th during STEM night. Hope to see you there!
