7th grade students are conducting a demonstration about natural selection, the process by which organisms better adapted to their environment tend to survive and produce more offspring.
Sixth grade students are studying Energy Sources in class. They researched the most effective shape, size, and design of the blades and then designed their own wind turbine blades out of cardboard and duct tape. They tested them by measuring voltage output with a voltage meter, improved their designs to increase energy output, then final tested them against the class and entire grade level. Our sixth grade overall winner was Jaxon Beck with an amazing output of 214 watts!
7th grade students will take the STAAR writing test on Tuesday, April 6th.
Parents, Please be aware that due to a high school track meet, you will be unable to enter the stadium parking lot to line up for dismissal until 3:15 p.m. today. We will have this situation again next week on Wednesday, April 7th and Thursday, April 8th. We apologize for the inconvenience and thank you for your help.
This is a message for all 8th grade parents:
