8th grade Science Academy
8th graders will experience a hair raising study of the history and physics behind roller coaster design. Students will spend six weeks learning how to design and build their own coasters, using Newton's Laws of Motion. They will then travel to Orlando, Florida, where they will meet with roller coaster engineers at Island of Adventure and explore the science behind special effects technology.
