Petaluma's St Vincent de Paul Elementary Students tour the SPARQ Center

Seeing stars: St. Vincent de Paul Elementary School students recently had a great day at the SPARQ center. Director Mr. Kruger provided special access during Piner High School's spring break to give the students a private tour. Admissions coordinator Danielle Rynning detailed the visit of students talking about the to-scale Solar System, which spans the length of the campus. They also spent time in the observatory and learned how the telescope worked. The group finished their visit with a fantastic planetarium presentation where Kruger guided them through an interactive view of the Milky Way, constellations, planets, the sun and more.
