Daler Roots, Out-Of-This-World Achievements

Northside Elementary School was proud to welcome back alumna Caeley Looney for a special whole-school assembly. Caeley is an aerospace engineer, published author, and Forbes 30 Under 30 honoree. Having worked on everything from satellites to lunar missions, Caeley shared her inspiring journey in the space industry with our students.

Following her talk, she gave a live reading of her original book, Charlie’s Space Adventures: Mission to the Moon, which aims to spark curiosity and build confidence in young readers. The visit concluded with an interactive Q&A session where students asked questions about space, writing, and engineering.
