We conducted a test for our new alert system today at 1:34 PM. The text you received is connected to your student's Skyward account and to employees. This will not be a message that goes out to community members with no students in the district. If you are a parent/guardian or staff member and did not receive a text, please let us know by calling the Grade School or High School office.
Mrs. Hardiek's class has been studying electric current, circuits, and magnetism in Science. Mr. Sanders came in and worked with the students on series and parallel circuits. The students were able to light the bulbs and troubleshoot if it did not work. They also used a small motor and shot a propeller into the air. A big thank you to Mr. Sanders for his time and talent.
