Students took to the polls and voted for their candidate! Students had identification and took the time to consider who they thought was the best choice and the winner was Flippy the Fish!
🧩 Today, our 1st grade students dove into the world of shapes! They practiced identifying circles, squares, triangles, and rectangles and then got creative with a fun activity — making shape monsters! 👾💚 Using different combinations of these shapes, each student crafted their own unique monster, showing off their creativity and their new shape skills. Learning math has never been this much fun! 📐🎨 #ShapeMonsters #1stGradeFun #CreativeLearning #MathAndArt
Congratulations to our 2024 JHS Homecoming Royalty, Queen Keyana Ehnes and King Jace Ehmke!!
The elementary students participated in the mock election. The official vote count: Flippy the Fish = 39, Tommy the Turtle = 32, Harry the Hamster = 26. Thanks to the senior government class for heading the mock election for the elementary school.
Our math students are diving into the sum of interior angles today. Did you know that in a triangle, the sum is always 180?
Day 5 of the National FFA Convention was packed with excitement! We started the morning with a tour of a local orchard, where we got to see a variety of apples, strawberries, and pumpkins – and even tried our hand at an apple cannon! Afterward, we made our way back to the Expo Hall to explore more businesses and colleges. Later, we cheered on our area chapters during the 5th Session’s award presentations. The day ended with an unforgettable night at the Three Hills FFA rodeo! #NationaFFA

🎶 Science in Action! 🎶 Today, our 4th graders dove into the world of sound waves, discovering how vibrations make everything from music to the hum of a bee possible. Using simple materials like tuning forks and water, they explored how sound waves travel and create vibrations we can feel and hear. 🌊👂
Their faces lit up as they watched water ripple and objects move just from the power of sound! Hands-on learning at its best – fostering curiosity and a love for science.
This week in Pre-K, we finished up our patterns unit! Using fun manipulatives, our little learners created and extended their own patterns. Plus, they enjoyed playing a number search game to identify numbers 1-5.
🌟 This week in our 6th-grade math class, we brought ratios to life with some hands-on activities! Students explored the concept of ratios by measuring out lemonade powder and water to create the perfect lemonade. They discovered how changing just a little bit of the mix or water makes a big difference in flavor. 🍋🥤
Then, we dove into mixing colors 🎨, discovering how even small changes in ratios could make a big difference in the shades we created. It was an awesome way to see math in action, and the creativity was inspiring!
Hands-on learning at its best, and a fun way to make math more meaningful!
In preschool, activities like riding trikes and scooters are more than just fun—they’re essential for developing gross motor skills!
Gross motor skills involve large muscle groups and are the foundation for balance, coordination, and physical strength. Riding trikes and scooters helps children practice pushing, steering, and balancing, all while building core strength and coordination.
Nothing like seeing our 1st graders showing off their Cougar pride in style! Decked out in Cougar apparel, these future champs are ready to cheer on the home team and bring all the energy for homecoming! Go Cougars! 🐾 #CougarPride #Homecoming2024 #GoCougars
Second grade had fun participating in the homecoming dress up days!
Homecoming Parade Start @ 1:30pm TODAY!
Day 4 of the National FFA Convention was packed with unforgettable experiences! Students kicked off the day exploring the expo hall, meeting college recruiters and connecting with leaders from top ag businesses. Lunch took us to the Horseshoe Indianapolis racetrack, where we watched live horse racing, chatted with horse owners, and even posed with some winning horses! We were thrilled to meet Otto Thorwarth, the actor who played the jockey in Secretariat. We closed out the day with the National Convention Talent Show Semi-Finals and an inspiring 3rd general session. #FFANationals #AgOpportunities #FFAExpo
Day 3 of the FFA National Convention started off in Louisville, KY with a visit to the iconic Louisville Slugger bat factory! We learned how they select the wood, craft the bats, and get them game-ready for the field. After that, we hit the road to Indianapolis, checked in at the Convention, and attended the opening session of the 97th National FFA Convention. The night ended on a high note with an awesome concert by Nate Smith and Megan Moroney! #FFANationals #LouisvilleSlugger #AgInAction #NateSmith #MeganMoroney
