⛷️ Going for the Gold: Second Grade Ski Jump! As Ms. Woller’s class wrapped up their two-week journey exploring the different events of the Olympic Games, the classroom turned into a winter sports arena! Using straw rockets, students became physics experts, studying how the force of their "wind" (breath) and the angle of their jump determined who reached the furthest distance. The second graders measured their "jumps" just like Olympic officials to see who could land the longest flight—and after some record-breaking attempts, they crowned an official Olympic Gold Medalist in the end!

Some of our high school art students just wrapped up an incredible Pop Art Self-Portrait Project—and the results are AMAZING! Blending art and technology, students used their Chromebooks to capture reference photos and explored AI-generated comic-style inspiration. After studying Roy Lichtenstein and the key features of Pop Art—bold outlines, bright colors, Ben-Day dots, and expressive emotion—they used the grid method to carefully transfer their images with accuracy and detail. Each portrait reflects personal creativity while building patience, confidence, and artistic skill. We are so proud of their focus, growth, and willingness to try something new!

We had a great student section supporting our Junior High Lady Geese volleyball teams tonight! Both squads were victorious!

Seventh-grade Health students have been learning about emotional awareness and strategies for maintaining positive mental and emotional health. This week’s lessons focused specifically on stress—what it is, how it affects the body and mind, and healthy ways to manage it. To help students experience and reflect on stress in a controlled environment, they participated in an interactive dice game. One student rolled the dice while another raced to write numbers to 100, and two additional students observed and waited to rotate in. The competitive and time-sensitive nature of the activity naturally created moments of stress, providing a meaningful opportunity for students to recognize their reactions and discuss effective coping strategies. Students were highly engaged and appreciated the hands-on example that brought the concept of stress to life.

Eighth-grade ELA students recently engaged in the Question Formulation Technique (QFT) and an alphabet brainstorming activity to activate and build background knowledge about the Holocaust as they prepare to read Maus I. Working collaboratively, students generated and refined their own questions, sparking thoughtful discussion and deeper inquiry into this significant historical event.

Our Lady Geese are playing for the Regional Championship in Fulton on Thursday night versus Pecatonica. The game tips off at 6:00 pm! If we can get enough HS Students to sign up for a FAN BUS (25), we will be able to offer one for a ride! Fan Bus + Ticket = $12
