Stringtown High School art students recently combined creative craft with practical science during a hands-on project exploring the art of traditional soap making.
A total of 24 students in grades 7 through 12 participated in the instructional workshop, where they learned about the rich history, chemical reactions, and essential safety measures required when working with lye.
Working step-by-step through the process, the students prepared and poured a variety of custom soap recipes. The finished batches are currently curing, and each student will receive a bar of their handcrafted soap to take home once the process is complete.
