be processed through the Provost Marshal’s
Office. There is no need to renew valid pass-
ports currently in possession. Because new

take a minimum of three weeks before they
are returned. Applicants should apply early

Students discover the
secrets of Science...
Zoe Bitzes and Anthony Figueroa, both in the 3rd grade, make a
filter to create clean water as part of Science Fun Day at A.T. Mahan
Elementary School, Mar. 22. Throughout the day military and civil-
ian volunteers taught children about some of the more fun and inter-
esting aspects of science, such as “bubbleology” and how to make
balloons race.
In addition to bubbleology, students learned how water and air
pressure influence the world around them.
Though the students learned a lot about science, they also gained
insight into the community they call home.
According to 6th grade teacher Zora Gaymon, having military
members from around the base interact with the students left a big
impression. “It makes a big difference to the students when they see
military members take the time to volunteer at the school. It increas-
es the involvement and student interest in the subject of science. It
also demonstrates to the students that they are valued members of the
community,” said Gaymon.
The elementary school holds Science Fun Day once a quarter.
