Sixth Grade FUNOLOGY On Friday,
April 25th, parents and students from the 6th grade spent
the evening conducting science experiments for the 2nd Annual
FUNOLOGY night. They were busy making latex rubber balls,
testing air pressure with hen fruit (hard boiled eggs), examining
Total cereal to see if there is actually any lead in it, as
well as many other fun science experiments. The event lasted
two hours and everyone went home with memories of a fun evening
spent with science.
Sixth Grade Washington, D.C. Trip

to Washington, D.C. They are scheduled to leave at 6 a.m.
on the morning of May 30th, with an expected return time of
12:00 a.m. The trip's agenda includes a stop at the Smithsonian
Museums, the Lincoln Memorial, the Vietnam and Korean Memorials,
and lastly a trip to the National Zoo. They will certainly
be exhausted but well educated when they return to school.
