Mrs. Johnson’s Media Design and Communications students teamed up with the Oskaloosa Independent to create the Chargers in the News bulletin board. The Oskaloosa Independent generously donated two copies of the newspaper each week. Students cut out and laminate articles featuring JCN Chargers and add them to the bulletin board in the hallway. The second copy of newspaper is for the students to read. The students have been very excited to read the articles and see who has been “in the news."

Photography class has been learning all about the basic settings of dslr cameras and to further their understanding of shutter speed we experimented with glow sticks in the dark! They had fun learning how a slow shutter speed can capture movement.

The 6th grade class took a field trip to the Washburn University Crane Observatory and Planetarium.
6th graders are currently learning about space in science class, so this was the perfect opportunity to go visit.
