History   

Travel back in time in Texas’ history and explore our land, waterways and historic buildings as a scientist! Put on your archaeologist hat and “dig” for artifacts that give clues about the time period they came from and people who lived here before us. Learn about the irrigation system that once cris-crossed 70 miles of our city and helped feed Mission residents. Use math to recreate 1800s quilt patterns and shapes. Brainstorm ways save our local limestone structures for future generations. Get ready for some fun, hands-on learning about S.T.E.A.M. concepts (Science-TechnologyEngineering-Art-Math)!

STEP into the 1926 --- visit a 100-year-old rural school, view an antique vehicle; see items used for constructing building, treating illnesses, and teaching school. Have fun making crafts.

JUMP into 2026 ---- Interact with high school students: Construction Careers Academy, Medical Services Academy, CAST Teach Academy. Pretend constructing a building, learn to treat someone with a puncture wound.
