Ready, Set, Race!

Last week the front lobby was turned into a speedway as Mrs. Barger’s Physical Science class

had a Mousetrap  Car Race. The students made their race cars out of mousetraps and

measured the individual distance that each car traveled.  They also calculated and compared

the speeds of the different cars, as well as the time it took to travel that distance.

The overall winners had the highest calculated distance and velocity out of all the racers.  

The distance winners were Leah Bentley and James Thompson, and the speed winners were

Zoe Buey and Haley Allen.
