ATTENTION ALL 6TH-8TH GRADERS: SIGN UPs FOR BOWLING CLUB HAVE STARTED.
Any 6th -8th grader that is interested in joining our Bowling Club please pick up a registration packet from Mrs. Eckert (she will be handing them out in lunches starting this week). No experience is required, we welcome beginners. All packets must be returned to Mrs. Eckert by March 23rd to be considered. We will be going to Sparta Lanes for 5 Thursdays in March: 3, 10, 17, 24, 31 from 3:00 - 5:30 pm. We will be taking a bus to and from the Bowling Lanes. There are only 50 spots on the bus so please get your paperwork in ASAP so you can go. Extra Packets will be available in the Middle School Office if you need one.
Bulldog Book Clubbers had fun crafting bookmarks for some wickedly good books!
We were asked if we can grow lettuce in the school greenhouse for school lunches like we do in the small hydroponic growers in the Tech and Family Consumer Science classes. Sure! This 20' long three tube hydroponic grower could potentially grow up to 90 lettuce plants every 6-8 weeks and provide fresh veggies as well as a great learning tool for our students. Next on deck in the greenhouse is the irrigation system that wasn't able to be installed due to covid. Hoping all the improvements are done for the warmer weather but we are hoping to have a very green greenhouse this spring.
4th Grade Science students had a chance to be paleontologists today while extracting chocolate chips out of cookies using toothpicks. Fun was had by all!
