School carnival is Friday, May19th and many volunteers are needed to make it a great success. We need help with games, food, silent auction, bounce houses, set up and clean up.

On April 20th, 4th graders visited the Thomas Condon Paleontology Center and hiked the Blue Basin. This was a part of our study on fossils, earth's changes over time, and erosion. Students loved to be out in nature exploring and seeing fossils first hand. We had a great day! Special thanks to Geologist Carrie Gordon who visited us before our trip to teach us about the geology of the region!
