🎢Our 7th and 8th grade science classes took on an exciting challenge by designing and building their own rollercoasters! 🛠️ Students had to plan, budget, purchase materials, and bring their creations to life before testing them out. It’s been an amazing hands-on learning experience, combining creativity with real-world problem-solving! 🚀

👩🏼⚕️Now that school is back in full swing, our Nurse's Office wanted to remind families of a few things that can help keep our Falcon students and staff healthy!
💙In an effort to promote good health in all children, it's important that you keep your child home from school for an illness. Please review the "When to Keep your Child Home From School" guidelines, linked below.
💙 We encourage students to bring a water bottle every day. A well-hydrated body is better equipped to stay healthy and fight off illness.
