ROCKSPRINGS — Meigs Middle School hosted its first family science night last week.
Approximately 212 students and visitors attended the event, which featured a range of science activities for the students and their families.
It was sponsored by the University of Rio Grande and featured hands-on activities and demonstrations from Ohio University, University of Rio Grande, Cool Critters Outreach, the Clay Center and Meigs Middle School’s very own science teachers. Also on hand were local professionals to tell how science is used in their careers.
In addition, there was representatives from colleges available to supply information about science programs offered at their schools.
A “Recycling” mosaic was created by students and on display in the lobby. The four foot by eight foot mural was made entirely of plastic lids.
