NASA program at Academie Lafayette grade school
NASA presented their aerospace education
program at Academie Lafayette, a Kansas City, MO charter school (K-8).
The students were absorbed by the equipment displays and demonstrations
presented at the program by John Lowerison of NASA aerospace
education. Eric Roskam, the school vice-principal, said that Mr.
Lowerison was clearly knowledgable in science, enthusiastic, and
skilled in handling the large group of students. Current Electronics
initiated the arrangements early in January and is grateful NASA was
able to schedule the visit so soon. This program certainly
encourages students to learn more about science. Many thanks to Mr.
Roskam and teacher Leslie Houfaidi for working on the arrangements
for the program. The school looks forward to continuing
their relationship with the NASA aerospace education
program.See NASA AESP for more information regarding NASA aerospace education services programs.
