There are many effective ways to reduce stuttering. Doing nothing is not one of them.
SHARON HILLS PARTICIPATES IN CARBON DIOXIDE PILOT PROGRAM Sharon Hills Elementary recently
participated in a pilot program focused on carbon dioxide (CO₂) management, partnering with Rice University’s Tapia Center and ExxonMobil Pipeline Company. The initiative introduces students to STEM activities explaining CO₂ capture and storage as a way to combat climate change. Over 120 students engaged in hands-on lessons, building model carbon capture reservoirs using common materials to simulate underground storage. Principal Angela D. Sims emphasized the importance of fun, interactive STEM education for young learners. The program aims to inspire future STEM careers by teaching real-world science and environmental solutions, expanding its reach from middle schoolers to elementary students.
