Northport Works on Flight and Space

This IS Rocket Science! As part of their “Flight & Space” unit, students in Mr. Fess’ 7th grade Northstars STEM class constructed and launched model rockets. These students have been studying aerodynamics and propulsion systems in addition to the history and present state of rocketry and human spaceflight. Virtual students participated as well. Mr. Fess had previously delivered rockets to these students so they could build along with him virtually and come in to launch.
