“It was lots of fun experiencing a scientific big deal,” he said, “when the moon passes between the sun and earth and is perfectly aligned to completely block the face of the sun,” Feiner said.

The school district suggests that people bring beach chairs or blankets for comfortable viewing. Light concessions will be available for purchase.
