Stadeometer

Delvin Chung has created a beast of a sculpture. Standing over 7 feet tall, his measuring device- called a stadeometer, I learned- has a numbered measuring component, and an ingenious sliding block that rests on the person-getting-measured's head, making for very accurate height readings. Currently residing in Room 215, photos of this masterpiece can be found on the bulletin board on the south side of the school, near the office. Check it out!
