Fifth graders put their engineering skills to work this week. We made spinning tops and collected data about how long we could make them spin. Then we graphed the data. Next, we embraced March Madness by creating a catapult to launch a ping pong ball through the hoops we made.
With Real Feel temperature staying in the mid-30's today, we are going to CANCEL today's Softball game at Stockton & Baseball games vs. Warren/Stockton. Currently, there is no make-up date scheduled but we are working on it.
LCP and ELA preschool classes had a blast on their field trip to J&J today!

Todays JV Baseball Game, March 23rd, will be played at Warnken Park, instead of the High School Field 4:30pm.
