Some students got a chance to showcase their talents in the arts and sciences Wednesday evening.
The South Science and Technology Magnet held a "STEAM Night", an arts and sciences convention, full of unique displays and interactive exhibits. Students and their families got an in-depth look at robotics demonstrations, interactive science, math, and technology experiences, as well as showcases that featured art, astronomy, and the environment.
In addition to South Science and Technology Magnet students, other groups and participants were at the event, including SESA, OSU Tech Wizards, Lima Astronomical Society, and the Johnny Appleseed Park District naturalists.
"It's an opportunity for our families to see the work our students have been doing. We have some unique classes and offerings here at South. From engineering to some of the applications that we're doing in music. So it's an opportunity for families to see some of the unique work the kids are exposed to and are doing," said Chad Fallis, South Science and Technology Magnet principal
"It was a little bit difficult programming it so it runs and does the exact angles and stuff. It's a lot of fun going out and doing the competitions. I like science. I like to build things," said Selena Paynegreno, 8th grader.
This is an annual event that takes place every spring at South Science and Technology Magnet. This year, a total of 14 different exhibits were on display throughout the gymnasium.
