Raising funds to enrich the Walton High School Community
Our very own physics teacher, Mrs Evans, flew into the stratosphere…above normal airplane altitudes and up to about 45,000 feet on the NASA SOFIA while doing some awesome science as part of the SETI Institute’s NASA Airborne Astronomy Ambassadors (AAA) program. SOFIA is a Boeing 747SP aircraft modified to carry a telescope with an effective diameter of 100 inches. Way to go Mrs Evans!

One parent must attend with his or her student so that you are also aware of the resources available and the various organizational systems that can benefit your student. The cost of the seminar is $50.00. We have a limited number of students and parents we can accommodate to ensure an effective program so please complete the appropriate registration form below, soon.
