Mrs. Bales' 1st Grade Class celebrated Cinco de Mayo on My Day Friday. We learned all about the holiday by taking a "trip" to Mexico. We enjoyed being introduced to some Spanish words. We also taste-tested some foods, and learned how to do the traditional Mexican Hat Dance.
A group of high school students went to the BPA Substation last week. They learned about the electricity conversions that happen at the substation, saw the machines that do the conversions, and participated in a friendly competition to create the best/most efficient turbine.

In celebration of National Leadership Week last week, DHS's National Honor Society put on a leadership scavenger hunt. One of the tasks was to take a selfie with students from other grades. Our younger kids enjoyed interacting in a positive way with our high school students, and our high school students loved getting to know some of our younger kids. One submission was drawn for a cash prize, and senior Emma Coleman was the winner!
Last day to donate to our annual Walk-a-thon! Thanks to our amazing students and community we have already reached our goal and we would love to reach $10,000!
