The High School is sponsoring its annual food drive for the Pantry of Hope in Nortonville. It will run until Thursday, March 4th.
While the ultimate goal is to do this for a good cause, the Student Council is still hosting a competition for it. The class with the average highest points per student (the total amount of points the class has divided by the number of students in the grade) will win a prize. See the attached list for points.
Both cash and nonperishable items are accepted, so send in food with a high school student if you can. Thank you!
I've always told my chemistry students that my favorite element in the world is Silver! This week we are performing a five day lab during which (the first day) we will be growing silver crystals. The sad thing is that during day two we react those beautiful silver crystals with nitric acid, and produce silver nitrate...which is no where near as pretty. These pictures show the silver crystals growing on a copper wire. The time lapse YouTube video is condensed down from two hours of actual video. (If anyone is curious, this lab is all about stoichiometry!!)

Mrs. Deviney’s 1st grade did an experiment to see how different types of drinks affect the shell of an egg. We soaked four eggs for seven hours in soda, fruit juice, milk & water. We learned the enamel of our teeth is similar to an egg’s shell. The soda & fruit juice stained the egg shell & made the shell weaker. We were able to brush off some of the stain. The milk make the shell harder to crack. The water did not show any change to the shell. We had fun making a hypothesis & seeing if our prediction was true.
Attention Parents!!!!!!!! The order code for class picture packets that went home have the wrong order code. Inter-state Studio had a system problem that required them to change our school's order code from the forms that went out. The new order code is 57567V to order class pictures online through the company.
