The Rocket Club also promotes student responsibility, math skills, and a general sense of working together. Each blast off takes a great deal of preparation and pulling ideas together. Each student builds his or her own model rocket and launches it under adult supervision on the school's football field. Everyone has a great time and learns how to apply many of the academics learned in school. Student involvement in a school club promotes good study skills, allows the student to make new friends, and provides an outlet for all that youthful exuberance.
Profits help buy the engines and other supplies used in the launches.
