The Spring Play is just around the corner!! Please make reservations for the show and dinner via the school website. Dinner will be Fish, Baked Potato, Cole Slaw, Dinner Roll, and Dessert. Synopsis of the play "Clue" The show is described as a “murder-mystery comedy thriller” that follows six guests at a mysterious dinner party where they find themselves implicated as murder suspects when their host turns up dead. Wadsworth, the butler, leads Mrs. Peacock, Mr. Green, Colonel Mustard, and other guests to attempt to find the killer as the body count builds. Following in the footsteps of the film, the project bills itself as a “comedy whodunit.”

You may remember our post from a couple weeks ago regarding Mr. Figge's Agricultural Communications class doing a fundraiser this semester, with their main goal being to create a survey which they learned about during the class. They are "Quacking" individuals and classes, and to keep the ducks, $15 dollars must be paid. The money received will be donated to the Pottowatomie/Wabunsee County Library's Onaga branch. The class of 2024 has pledged to match the raised money. This week, the class did some more "Quacking" at the school for a great cause!

Last week, five 5th graders and two 6th graders earned the opportunity to attend and compete in the regional KidWind competition held at Kansas State University. They received this honor by creating a wind turbine that created the most amount of energy in their class. This competition is sponsored by the Kansas Energy Program. The regional contest consisted of four parts: the performance tunnel where the turbines were tested, a quiz, a presentation, and an instant challenge where they were put on the spot to test their knowledge of science-related concepts. While at KSU, students also toured the innovation lab at Hale Library and, of course, ate ice cream at Call Hall. Neither team earned a spot at the state contest, but the fifth grade team, "Uncle Fred," was awarded "Judge’s Choice" for an exceptional presentation. The teachers facilitating this year’s projects were Hannah Kolterman and Holly Thomas. Students attending regionals for the 5th grade team were Cyrus Jones, Daylan Griffin, Mason McClain, Grayson Kaberline, and Max Hanner. For the 6th grade team it was Kaiden Uland and Sally Miller. Thanks to Ms. Kolterman and Mrs. Thomas for helping facilitate such a great experience for these kids!
