Last evening, the Manchester Township School District (MTSD) hosted a Pre-K-12 Family Computer Science Fair. Held at Manchester Township Middle School, approximately 200 community members enjoyed a fun-filled evening of computer science learning, activities, and snacks for the whole family as sponsored by the Manchester Township Education Association (MTEA).
Manchester's preschool and elementary-aged students loved the Starbase Lego Spike Driving mats. They were able to program the cars through a mini city and block coding. MTHS students showcased a great 3-D display and hosted a popular giveaway. Ocean County College students were on hand with a robotic arm for Manchester's students to learn how to program and manipulate. Manchester's middle and high school engineering students taught attendees how to use Sphero Robotic Kits. The evening was engaging and a successful family night out for the MTSD!
Mark your calendar for the next Family Education Event being held on Thursday, January 16, 2025, from 5:30 to 7:30 PM. This Clean/Renewable Energy Education Fair will showcase problem-solving skills, teach how energy and electricity are made and converted to power grids, and there will be examples and projects on how solar and wind power are generated. We can not wait to see everyone there!
