The Hovercraft Project

The Good Shepherd 5th and 6th grade boys were recently treated to a fun, exciting, and educational experience thanks to Stuart Hall School and The Hovercraft Project.  Stuart Hall invited the boys to their campus for the STEM project where the students built and rode hovercrafts.  The Hovercraft Project travels the United States teaching students the principles behind how and why a hovercraft is possible and then helps the students to build and ride their own hovercraft.
