Cooking Around the World had its last lab on Wednesday, just before the last two days of school before their semester test. The students completed learning about Africa, and they made a stew called Chicken Mafe. It had cabbage, carrots, onions, potatoes, tomato paste, chicken thighs, spices, and peanut butter. At first the students were not sure, so Mrs. Schmitt ate the first bite and declared it delicious. The rest followed, and some even had seconds.
Foods II finished strong this year with grilling chicken for their poultry unit. They had perfect weather, even though it was a little cold outside, on Wednesday to grill chicken breast. The students used a meat thermometer to make sure they were 165 degrees. Mrs. Schmitt also showed them how to check their chicken if they do not have a thermometer at home.
Congratulations to the 4th grade class on successfully completing elementary school!

6th Grade Quarter Activity: Relay races organized by kids at school, volleyball tournaments, wiffle ball, Gaga ball, play time at the park with grilled hot dog lunch, and dodgeball tournaments. It was chilly today, and there were a few sprinkles, but everyone had fun!










7th graders went to watch a movie at the Sumner Sunset Theater for their quarter reward party.

One of the traditions we have is sending our 8th graders to Palmer’s Family center for their final quarter activity. We think they had some fun today
