Engineering in Action in Mrs. Needham’s Classroom!
Students in Mrs. Needham’s class have been exploring the engineering design process with an exciting question: How do roller coasters work?
To begin their research, students watched point-of-view videos of roller coasters with hills, loops, and corkscrews. Through their investigation, they discovered that gravity and force are what make a coaster move!
Next, students started imagining what features might make a roller coaster faster or slower. They learned that hard surfaces, curves and hills can speed a coaster up, while loops, straight sections, and inclines might slow it down.
Working in teams, students designed their own roller coasters and then brought their ideas to life. The classroom quickly turned into a mini amusement park as students tested, redesigned and improved their creations. Our students had so much fun experimenting, problem-solving and thinking like engineers!
Great job, Riverhawks!

"We have a repeat Chess Club champion! Sam Nelson defeated Cooper Philo in the tiebreaker match in the 2026 Chess Club Double elimination Tournament.
Sam Nelson is a back to back champion! Cooper didn’t make it easy as Cooper came back, won the consolation bracket and defeated Sam to get the finals to go to a tiebreaker! Their matches were always close!
Myles Teeple was in third place and Noah Watkins and Mason Kirk were our top Middle School finishers.
It was a great season for the Chess Club as we had over 30 members! Every week we had multiple people show up, play great games and show great sportsmanship as every game ended with a handshake! Nice job future Grandmasters!"
Congratulations to all! Keep on playing, Riverhawks!
