Fourth graders devise contraptions to defy gravity for annual egg drop challenge

Fourth graders hosted their annual egg drop challenge this morning in the lunchroom. For this science project, students attempt to defy gravity by engineering a protective container that will keep a raw egg from cracking or breaking when dropped from a distance of about 26 feet. Mr. Kerr from Facilties was in charge of dropping the eggs, which were then unwrapped to see if they survived. Most eggs survived thanks to ingenious contraptions devised by the students.
