There will be one final Starlab training for  teachers this year on Wednesday January 25th from 5-7 pm at Russell Elementary school. If you, or any Cobb colleagues, want to be trained on how to use the Starlab then this is a great opportunity.  Teachers must complete this training before using the Starlab as it is a complicated apparatus.  You can register in 30 seconds at https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/StarLab2017
