This Week in Physics (Dec 6-10)

 In Physics

Dear Parents and students,

It is almost time for Winter break and the students are ready!  But before we go we still need to complete a few things.  Please keep in mind that all missing work must be turned in by Dec. 10th.  No late work will be accepted after that date.  Also, the first draft of the science and stem paper is due before Winter break.   You can find all the information for the Science Fair and the Stem Fest here:

The rules are long and tedious for the powerpoint: the layout, colors, fonts and so forth are very strict. Get the template for the powerpoint here: https://sites.google.com/view/science-fair-stem-festival/home

San Tan’s annual Gifted Testing event is approaching quickly! 

If you are interested in having your child tested for giftedness, please complete the digital Parent Request Form, along with the $50 Co-Pay, linked below.  Gifted testing is will be offered in mid. February.   Once a child is identified as gifted, they do not need to retest.  Gifted testing will begin in mid- February.

  • If your child is currently in a gifted class and identified as ‘provisional’ they will automatically be retested, you do not need to send in the recommendation form. : -)
