We are excited to be piloting the PLTW Launch Program in our elementary gifted education classes.  Each class, grades 2-5, is completing one module first semester.  The modules are:

Grades 2-3:  Stability and Motion:  The Science of Flight
Grade 4:  Energy:  Collisions
Grade 5:  Robotics and Automation:  Challenge

Through PLTW Launch, students learn to use the Engineering Design Process to solve problems.

2017-2018 Murray News for 1st Quarter

Video Production

Our 5th grade Challenge class has taken over "The Murray News."  Their newscasts focus on Murray special events, sports, new curriculum and technology, accomplishments, and upcoming events.  The students write the segments and film them in front of a green screen in our Video Production Studio. We use Pinnacle Studio to edit our film, then we upload the videos to YouTube.  You can watch some of our past videos here.
