District 46 Students Enjoy Getting Messy at Science Night

Students in District 46 gathered at Frederick School Tuesday for a night of hands-on science experiments designed to teach STEM—Science, Technology, Engineering and Math.

Science Night in District 46, sponsored by the Boy Scouts of America in cooperation with the Girl Scouts, was a big hit with students and grown-ups alike at Frederick School Tuesday.

The hands-on science experiments, about 20 total, ranged from making toothpaste explode and creating slime to blasting off a squeeze rocket and extracting DNA.

Many of the experiments were conducted by scientists, engineers and professionals from area companies.
