Who Knew Salt Water Was So Exciting?

During our science lab time, students compared homogeneous mixtures (aka solutions) to heterogeneous mixtures. I could tell that the kids missed our labs while we focused on the science projects. I would never have thought they would be so thrilled to be dissolving salt into water!

Walk to Read

While the rest of the school was out for Dr. Martin Luther King Jr Day, our Service Club was hard at work collecting books to send to Africa. Our own Jessica narrated the slideshow of information, and she even wrote the song to go with it -- way to go, Jessica!

The Service Club surpassed their original goal of 150 books. Forest Creek sent over 200 books to establish or replenish libraries in Uganda. Thank you to everyone who took part in this great cause.
