Congratulations to Ms. Brenda Beasley, Bus 502, for earning Bus of the Month! Thank you for your dedication to getting our students safely to and from school safely!
Students in Mrs. Dickinson's and Mrs. McCormick's classes had an exciting and hands-on Science experience as they continued exploring all about matter! Students investigated everyday objects: a ball, paper clip, and pencil eraser to examine their properties. Working together in teams, they discussed and recorded observations about each object, just like scientists!
Using balances, students measured the mass, tested for magnetism using magnets, and observed whether the objects would sink or float in water. Our scientists also compared temperatures by testing three different water samples: room temperature water, water that had been sitting outside, and chilled water from the fridge.
Just like real scientists, students asked questions, made predictions, and used tools to measure and observe matter. It was an engaging Fun Science Experience full of discovery, teamwork, and applying science skills in meaningful ways!
Way to go Hornets! We are so proud of you!

3 Myths about Applying for Free & Reduced Lunch — and the real facts you need to know!
❌ Myth #1: “I was approved last year.”
✔️Reality: Each year, all individuals are required to submit a new application, even if they were approved in previous years.
❌ Myth #2: “The application is too complicated.”
✔️ Reality: The application is quick, confidential, and available online. Most families complete it in under 10 minutes. Plus, schools and Food & Nutrition Services teams are available to help if you need support.
❌ Myth #3: “It doesn’t matter, I’ll just pack my child’s lunch.”
✔️ Reality: Even if your child brings lunch from home, qualifying for Free & Reduced Lunch can still help your family. Students can get a healthy breakfast or lunch at school on busy days, during testing, or when plans change.
