Actor Walker Scobell visited MTA today! He plays the role of Percy Jackson in the “Percy Jackson and the Olympians” series on Disney+ and has also starred in “The Adam Project” and “Secret Headquarters.” He talked about balancing work and school, how he became an actor, and some of his favorite memories of being in show business.

To finish out their Pythagorean theorem unit, eighth grade created spiral projects. Students started with one right triangle with two one-inch sides. Students used the hypotenuse of that triangle as the leg of the next triangle, repeating this process to create at least 14 right triangles. Students then had the freedom to create their own design with the triangle spiral inside. #MTA #Math 📐
Third and fourth grade have been learning about bacteria this year. This week, students had the chance to use their knowledge in a science experiment. Using sterile cotton swabs, students swabbed surfaces around the school and wiped them on agar plates. Two days later, they counted their bacteria colonies and looked at them under a microscope! #MTA #Science 🧫🦠
