"This morning I watched one of the best science assemblies
I have ever seen. It was entitled “Our Atmosphere.” The “scientist” and
educator, Rich Blagden, explained concepts to the students like,
gravity, and atmospheric layers and air pressure in “kidspeak.” He used
students from the audience to perform great experiments with items you would find around the house. Students were encouraged to go home and replicate the experiments. The teachers loved it. The teachers even asked Rich to extend the 2nd assembly by ten minutes. - Glenda Wycoff, Principal
"...What a great time the kids had. It was the talk of the school. ...Thank you so much for your dedication and enthusiasm for teaching."
- Zondra Anthony-Ross,Teacher
