7th Grade Chemistry at the High School
Our current 7th Grade recently spent part of their chemistry block in our nicely appointed high school chemistry lab with our high school chemistry teacher Caroline Alba. Ms. Alba helped them create a mini website with the material they covered during their three day visit and invites you to take a peak here.

Students from our senior class join grade 3 to play "baseball" on the red circle during their visit to the grade school campus this week.
The seniors were quick studies as the third grade explained the rules; the batting line-up (above at right) was a little long and the extra height in the "outfield" (above at left) tended to shorten the innings.
