STEM Night is coming! Mark your calendar! Time to enter the pin design contest!
STEM Night (Science, Technology, engineering, math) at Florence will be Thursday, January 24th from 5:30-7: 30 pm. Every year we choose one Stem Night Pin Design Contestant and use their design for that year's pin! How exciting to have your design go down in FES History! We will sell this pin design at the STEM Night! I will also be sending out signups for entering a science experiment/project to the STEM fair in the near future. Be thinking of what Science Project you will do this School year!!!! Pin designs are Due Monday, Dec. 3rd! Get designing Kiddos!!!
