Page 4Thursday, SEPTEMBER 19,2013 THE GEORGIA POST &THE BYRON BUZZ FVMS haunches STARBASE Program The STARBASE program kicked off Tuesday, September 10, 2013 at Fort Valley Middle School. Students had a great time sharing and learning about each other in the initial meeting. They finished the meeting by participating in team chal lenges to build three free standing structures that were then stacked into one structure. This challenge required team work, cooperation, creativity, perseverance, and a little luck to complete the project of having the highest free standing structure. STARBASE is an afterschool educational STEM program held in conjunction with Robins Air Force Base Museum of Aviation at Fort Valley Middle School on Tuesdays from - 5:00 p.m. Students learn about various topics such as how to build and program robotics and about various STEM careers. Advisors are Ms. Paula Phelps and Mrs. Stephanie Johnson.
