Thousands of students attended a watch party at Wolff Municipal Stadium Monday afternoon to observe the solar eclipse.
As the world around her darkened, 12-year-old Basil Baird fixed her eyes upon the sky. The sixth grader had been waiting months for this moment. Surrounded by screams of excitement, Baird shot up from her seat and gaped upward as the moon crossed between the sun and Earth , casting a shadow of darkness over her and her classmates. “Oh my gosh,” the child exclaimed.
In addition to SAISD, there were also students from Southwest and Harlandale ISDs and a number of local charter schools at the event, which used the eclipse as a unique teaching opportunity to attract more students into science, technology, engineering and math subjects.
