Fifth graders Logan Nam, David Hur, and Braydon Kim proudly showcase their project on the effects of video games on mood and personality. They aim to shine with a first place in their final year of elementary school.

Third, fourth, and fifth graders gathered to share their creative solutions to thought-provoking problems in the Jetnasium on Nov. 11. The youngest participants designed towers as they aimed to build the tallest structure possible with straws, while the fourth graders crafted catapults to tackle force and motion. Meanwhile, the fifth graders crafted their original projects and engaged the audience with their innovative ideas.
