ELKHART, Ind. -- Fourth graders from across four area elementary schools, came out to Concord High School today for their Weather Balloon Launch.
ABC57 got the chance to speak with Elizabeth King, a teacher at Oxbow Elementary, and a student at concord West Side.
Students have been working on this project since January, and once launched, students were able to track their balloons in buses.
Their balloons landed approximately 90 miles away near Jackson Michigan.
