A universe of wonder! Students gaze at the eclipse through the magic of pinhole viewers.

This week, Clearview Elementary witnessed a truly awe-inspiring event – a solar eclipse! Our curious learners in 4th and 5th grade had the incredible opportunity to safely observe this celestial phenomenon using specially made pinhole viewers.

The excitement was palpable as students gathered, eager to catch a glimpse of the sun partially obscured by the moon. The pinhole viewers, crafted with care by the students themselves, projected a safe and fascinating image of the eclipse onto a surface. Witnessing this natural wonder firsthand sparked a flurry of questions and enthusiastic discussions about space, astronomy, and the wonders of our universe.

The solar eclipse event was a powerful reminder of the amazing learning experiences that take place within the walls of Clearview Elementary. Our dedicated teachers foster a love of science and exploration, providing students with the tools and guidance to unlock the mysteries of the world around them.

This event wasn't just about viewing an eclipse; it was about nurturing a generation of curious minds who are eager to learn and explore. It's these kinds of experiences that make Clearview Elementary such a special place. We are committed to providing our students with a well-rounded education that goes beyond textbooks, igniting a passion for lifelong learning.

We are incredibly proud of our students' enthusiasm and their insightful questions during the eclipse viewing. It's a testament to the exceptional learning environment at Clearview Elementary, where curiosity is encouraged, and imaginations take flight!
