Up,
Up, and Away!

Science
teachers and administrators from Catholic
schools in the Diocese of Bridgeport journeyed to the National
Aeronautics & Space Administration (NASA) headquarters
in Cocoa Beach, FL, last month, thanks to a grant from General
Electric. There they received training in Force and Motion from
NASA engineers and experts from the National Science Teachers
Association. Administrators also worked to develop district plans
to improve student learning in science. Schools represented included
Saint Mary School, Ridgefield;
Saint Gregory the Great School, Saint Peter-Sacred Heart School,
and Immaculate High School in Danbury; and Trinity Catholic High
School, Stamford.
