STUCK on SCIENCE Dinner @ Woodward School

MUSD students and their families participated in MUST's "Stuck on Science" dinner. Outback Steakhouse catered a wonderful dinner while the crowd was entertained with a fire & ice show by a "Mad Scientist". The kids were able to take part in the experiments, which were not only fun but very educational. At the end of the evening the decorated banana slugs were raffled off for each school. This is a wonderful fundraiser and all of the funds raised from this event are used to send MUSD students to Science Camp. Aracely from Mrs. Kruenegel's class won the banana slug for McParland.
