Da Vinci Science

We had another fun and eventful week at DVS! Interact Club partnered with our local Rotary Club to hold a “Pies for Polio for Challenge” to raise funds and awareness for those who may be impacted by this crippling disease. Thank you Interact Club, students, and staff for supporting this event!

Many seniors also participated in the Cal Poly SLO field trip this past Friday where students visited the campus and took tours from current SLO faculty and students. DVS students also enjoyed meeting up and seeking college advice from past DVS alumni. It was a great opportunity to learn about college life and explore possible interests for their future.
