One of our High School students has been out finding deer sheds and decided to bring one into welding class and replicate it out of steel. Looks awesome, Gavin!

Math was hands-on today at the Middle School! 🎲

Pre-Algebra students played Percent Tumbling Towers, practicing percentage skills with every move. 8th grade math students tackled Pythagorean Theorem Tumbling Towers, solving (a^2 + b^2 = c^2) problems for their turn.

Learning + a little friendly competition made for a great day in math! 📚

LHS students finished installing the greenhouse roofing panels at the community garden on Monday.

With the structure now dried in, the electrical class will begin wiring outlets and lighting, along with installing specialized greenhouse equipment.

After the electrical rough-in is complete, insulation will be installed before interior paneling and cabinetry are added.

The entire project is being built by LHS students. 🌱🏗️

I would like to nominate Ted VanHorn to be a recipient of the Orange Spot Award. Recently, while subbing in the Wood shop, Ted spent time building Shawn's confidence on how to safely use a cordless drill.
Initially, Shawn learned how to install and remove the battery pack. Later, Ted worked with Shawn on how to operate the drill. Shawn can now use the drill, independently, with supervision.
Thank you, Mr. VanHorn, for your encouragement to Shawn, and for instructing him!
And also, Way to go, Shawn!!
