Phases of the partial eclipse are captured with an 18-stop solar filter from Ladue High School’s football field April 8. Sunspots are visible after the eclipse. They are temporary concentrated cool areas of strong magnetic fields that regularly appear on the surface of the sun. (Photo illustration by Vincent Hsiao)

Maxwell Crane (12) looks up to view the sun. The eclipse reached a peak of 99% over St. Louis as the path of totality was about 30 miles south of the metro area. “Last time [in 2017] I drove out to achieve [full] totality, which was really really cool,” Crane said. “Obviously this time it was less of a spectacle but I thought it was really cool being able to see it with my friends at the school.”

Jason Shi (10), Aiden Qian (10) and Alex Wang (10) stand beside each other as they talk and view the eclipse from the field.

A graphic on the scoreboard created by broadcast teacher Don Goble and his students is shown as students gather on the football field during seventh hour. Short excursions across the entire district were made for students and staff to view the partial eclipse.
