Happy First Day of Fall - Autumnal Equinox from EduSciTech

Fall season scientifically starts today, September 22nd, 2024. The First Day of Autumn Equinox, broken down as “Equal Nights,” is a special day where summer has officially ended, and days will only get shorter moving forward. Fall is also the season where we witness fall of leaves, fall of temperature, fall back of one hour for daylight savings. Watching the leaves change color during Fall is one of the main ways the Fall season continues to be remarkable.

Wishing everyone a very Happy Autumnal Equinox as we begin the new school year!
