Saturday, November 2nd, 2024: The Syracuse Academy of Science Middle School STEAM Club girls took on an exciting challenge at The Museum of Science and Technology!

The Task was to build a structure out of spaghetti and marshmallows that could withstand a simulated earthquake and hold the most weight. Their creation held 1.25 pounds and remained rock solid during the quake simulation, earning it a spot as one of the two most structurally sound designs!

Way to go, future engineers! You’re building a strong foundation for success!

Wednesday, November 13th, 2024: Did you know November 13th is National Kindness Day? At Syracuse Academy of Science Elementary School, we believe that kindness isn’t just for one day—it’s a way of life! Our theme, “Lift Each Other Up With Kindness,” encourages students, staff, and families to spread positivity and make kindness a daily habit.

Kindness can be as simple as sharing a smile, offering a helping hand, or saying a kind word to someone in need. These small acts make a big difference in creating a supportive and uplifting community.

Let’s keep the kindness going, #SASAtoms! Together, we can make the world brighter—one act of kindness at a time.
