Excitement filled the air at Linden Hill Elementary this week as students eagerly awaited a rare celestial event: the Solar Eclipse. The school buzzed with anticipation as Red Clay provided eclipse glasses to all students, ensuring they could safely witness the breathtaking phenomenon. With eyes protected, the entire school gathered for a special event, allowing every student the opportunity to gaze up at the sky and witness the magic of the eclipse. A solar eclipse occurs when the moon passes between the sun and Earth, casting a shadow on Earth's surface. The next solar eclipse visible in the United States will be on August 23, 2044.
