To wrap up Engineers Week, last Friday we had our school wide STEM challenge. Students had the opportunity to design houses, the Eiffel Tower, and shoes out of newspaper! #STEM @PCS_STEM

Get ready for liftoff! 6th graders celebrated Engineering Week by collaborating with an aerospace engineer and designing their very own safe lander using the engineering design process! #STEM @PCS_STEM #EngineeringWeek

Our 7th grade AVID students would like to thank Mr. Jeff Foeller and ECU Engineering for hosting our students for a campus tour and STEM activity. Students were able to learn more about the engineering program at ECU and the engineering design process. @PCS_STEM @PCS_AVID

Check out Mr. Alvarez's Math 1 students engaged in collaborative study groups. Students worked together to review questions they missed on their CFA to find the correct solutions to the problems.

Mini demonstrations on physical and chemical changes made learning come alive for Mr. Fernando's 6th graders! Kudos to the ECU STAR program for igniting their curiosity and inspiring their love for STEM! #STEM @PCS_STEM
