What an electrifying day at Hitchcock-Tulare! ⚡⚗️

We had the incredible opportunity on Monday to host a science show led by some of Miss Brock's former college professors from South Dakota State University who wowed our students with hands-on chemistry and physics demonstrations! From eye-catching reactions to interactive experiments, students got to see science come to life right before their eyes! 💥

The learning didn’t stop there—our Chemistry students had the chance to dive even deeper, working alongside the professors to explore different types of chemical reactions through engaging, hands-on activities.

Experiences like this spark curiosity, build connections, and show students just how exciting science can be! 🧪✨

Thank you so much to Dr. Miller, Dr. Browning, & Dr. Madsen for coming to Hitchcock-Tulare for the day!
