Dec 18, 2025 | Recent News

The annual 8th Grade Paper Roller Coaster Expo rolled into D-E’s Middle School (MS) Building earlier today! This showcase event was the culmination of students’ hands-on study of (and appreciation for) the laws of physics and Newton’s Laws of Motion. Visiting fellow D-E students, MS parents, and faculty/staff enjoyed creatively designed, handcrafted marble roller coasters with themes, including Jurassic Park, MarioKart Underwater, Lucky Charms, and more. To our MS scientists: nice work and keep on rolling!
