5th and 6th grade teachers and students are ramping up for ATLAS testing in a few weeks with an ATLAS Boot Camp! These students are so excited about this. They are showing off what they CAN do and challenging each other. Thank you, teachers, for such a great idea! You're the best!!
Sophomores and Juniors went to the "Build My Future" event yesterday. The students learned about a variety of careers in the construction industry. They also had the opportunity to experience hands-on activities such as welding, bricklaying, extinguishing fire, operating heavy equipment, and building a bridge to name a few. Overall, I think the students learned some new things while having a little fun at the same time.
