Cloverdale first graders in Mrs. Bowles’ and Mrs. Humbert’s classes participated in an Engineering Day on May 3. They listened to Benjamin Bowles tell about his job as a civil engineer. He lives in Dallas, Texas and is involved in building envelope projects through his company Morrison Hershfield.

There were 20 STEM-related projects at the school. Each project had several focus questions where students were challenged to think critically and problem solve.  Students rotated through about half of them during the morning.
