Meet an Inventor

To help inspire ideas for our upcoming Invention Convention, inventor Mr. Peter Leibfried came to Southeast today to speak at lunches to interested students. Mr. Leibfried worked with students to show the creative process of finding ideas of things to improve, the importance of careful data collection, and trial and error. What a great experience for the students. Thank you Mrs. Irvine for providing this valuable experience for the students.
