[jwlyman00]

[Stevespanglerscience]

@jwlyman00 right now, Sub Zero Science is for schools in the Denver Metro area. Additional travel expenses apply for locations outside the Denver metro area.

[AnimeRooky]

no offense but about half the things you said in this video in completely false.

middle school might be a turning point in their lives but it isn't that significant of a change.

[Stevespanglerscience]

@AnimeRooky I have to agree that you might be a little misguided in your observation... middle school is a significant time of change. Just ask any parent, any teacher, any guidance counselor or police officer! Middle school is a huge time of change.
