Mr. King does so much for others in our Spartan community, and today we came together to support his daughter, Olivia — our littlest Spartan warrior — who lives with cerebral palsy.
It was a powerful reminder that the strength of Spartan Nation goes far beyond classrooms and competition. We show up for one another, we lift each other up, and we stand together as a Spartan Family.
Because at Boardman, Spartans are never alone in their fight. 💚

More than 200 fifth graders at Boardman Center Intermediate School had an out-of-this-world experience connecting with Boardman alum and NASA structural engineer Nick Mastramico during two virtual learning sessions!
Students loved learning about the Artemis mission—including the fact that four astronauts will spend 10 days in a spacecraft about the size of a minivan 😲. Nick shared how the rocket is designed, the many safety checks before launch, and what it’s like working behind the scenes on NASA’s next trip to the Moon.
Nick also told students he knew he wanted to work for NASA when he was in 6th grade—and that he truly loves his job today at Marshall Space Flight Center.
His message to students: Dream big, discover what you enjoy, and lean into what you do well. 🌟
You never know where those dreams might take you!
