Students across SCUC ISD explored the wonders of science through a series of interactive Science Expos this fall. Third graders at Paschal Elementary, fifth graders at Wilder Intermediate, and seventh graders at Corbett Junior High rotated through stations featuring activities like glo germs, rainbow science, handwriting analysis, and the crowd-favorite Whoosh station—a safe, supervised demonstration that uses combustion to make physics concepts come alive.

Guided by Samuel Clemens High School students, these hands-on experiences sparked curiosity and built connections across grade levels. Funded by a generous SCUC Education Foundation grant, the expos provided equipment and supplies that brought real-world science into classrooms, laying the groundwork for future STEM success.

The initiative began at Paschal on October 28, continued at Wilder on November 19, and concluded at Corbett on December 10. With plans to return in the spring featuring new stations and activities, SCUC continues to foster a culture of inquiry, innovation, and mentorship that inspires lifelong learning.

Parades, concerts, and most of all, thank-yous, were the focus of campus Veterans Day observances throughout SCUC leading up to the observance on November 11th. Processions were held through the halls of some campuses; students beamed with pride as they walked with parents, grandparents and other family members who currently serve or have served in the United States military. 

Meanwhile, Samuel Clemens High School Air Force and Byron P. Steele High School JROTC cadets led the yearly observance at their respective campuses. Family members, many of them military-connected, watched as school choirs paid tribute to their guests with patriotic songs and expressions of gratitude for their service. 

Veterans Day, first recognized as Armistice Day after World War I, reminds us of the men and women who serve to protect the nation from enemies, foreign and domestic. They trade comfort for duty, endure long deployments, often to volatile locales around the world. These sacrifices are felt by the service members themselves, and by their families at home. 

SCUC is grateful and proud to be a military-connected school district, with approximately 40 percent of its enrollment tied to current or former military veterans. We express our deepest thanks for those who volunteer to serve to keep our nation safe and free.
