Can milk proteins and silicon microchips change the world? 🧬
Skyline High School Titans have spent the last four months in the lab proving they’re ready for the big stage! Thanks to the FAST program, Titan student-scientists have been working side-by-side with UC Berkeley PhD mentors to tackle the tough questions.
From soil compaction and earthquake safety to the future of microchip construction—the innovation is next level. 🚀

Sharing some of our favorite moments from last month’s @grammys SF Chapter visits to @castlemonthigh and @fremonttigers ❤️ We’re so proud of the many students who put themselves out there and performed for the visiting artists and extra extra grateful for our school site educators who work with our students each and every day, helping them grow in their artistic practice.
Hope everyone is enjoying their spring break! We’re excited to hit the ground running next week for the final two months of school! 🏃♂️💨🎶
