Ms. Leard's Class
Ms. Leard's class started our day with the Hurricane Tracking Challenge. The very first class to take the Hurricane Challenge through no fault of their own did not have enough time to complete the challenge, but they did help to shape the challenge for future groups with their ideas on improving it! Ms. Leard's class will always have an honorable mention in the record books for their help in shaping the challenge for future students! Ms. Leard's class included Team Hurricane Bubble Squad, Team Ravens and Team Saturn!
