The 7th graders began their egg unit last week with classic scrambled eggs. 🥚 For this groups first time in the kitchen together, they worked really well together, and enjoyed their final products!








Last week, 9th and 10th grade biology students explored their carbon footprint and impact on the environment. They also researched and interacted with ways to reduce that impact, thanks to Black Hills Energy. Students were able to take home energy-saving kits and have the opportunity to use the items in their own homes. Thank you, Black Hills Energy!
