They are $10 and can be purchased by calling the high school office! Don't miss out on your chance to see this family friendly show next week, March 27th-29th! #CSDGoBeavers

Our #CSDGoBeavers students were given an energy design challenge in STEM class! The challenge was to design a wind turbine for Cumberland to generate backup power. 💨 They had the following design requirements: 🔻 The prototype must include a bevel gear and at least one other mechanism. 🔻 The prototype must transfer movement from the spinning blades (wind input) to the generator (output). 🔻 The prototype's output rotational speed should be faster than the input speed from the spinning blades. Students sketched out their ideas, got approval from Mrs. Zip, then they built, coded and tested their turbine. AWESOME WORK engineers! 👍
