Students from John L Colbert Middle School teamed up with the Fayetteville Aeronautics and Space Team at Lewis Park for an exciting hands on learning experience.

Students designed and built their own paper rockets, launched them, and collected and recorded data from their flights. Along the way, they put science and engineering concepts into action while learning from FHS students who share their passion for rocketry.
