At Concord Middle School students learn physics in 6th grade and then it is not really touched afterwards until 8th grade where it appears on state testing. The Cedar Point trip is as a way to for students to live the physics that they learned about. It gives the students something to look forward to while refreshing their memories. The most incredible part for me was hearing from my colleagues about students who spent half the year not engaging, not caring, and literally failing every class because they just didn't care all of a sudden doing a complete 180 and begin passing their classes. The level of engagement from students went through the roof and discipline issues dropped to near zero. Even the kids who were not eligible to go were behaving more. For many students in my area, their families simply cannot afford to take a trip to Cedar Point and this is a way for those students to have a memorable experience at the end of their middle school career.
