Celebrating the Solar Eclipse

Project MORE

Project MORE students had a special view of the eclipse as it happened on April 8. Emily Wall is a teacher at Project MORE and she invited her father Tom Wall to share his passion for astronomy and his telescope with their students.

Doolen Middle School

Students at Doolen Middle School stepped outside of the classroom to experience the eclipse. A variety of eclipse-related activities occurred across the campus, including making a model of the solar event using cookies and sharing art created by students depicting how past civilizations viewed eclipses.
