This week tenth graders took a field trip to see the movie “Hidden Figures,” a movie about female African-American mathematicians at NASA. The tenth grade curriculum includes several units on civil rights and European history. In past years, tenth graders have also visited spots like the Holocaust Museum. The movie focuses on how Katherine Johnson, played by Taraji P. Henson, helped calculate the flight trajectories for Project Mercury and other NASA missions.
