Mrs. Deviney's 1st grade incubated chicken eggs, beginning in March. The students learned many things about the incubating process & how to take care of newborn chicks. They were even lucky enough to witness one chick hatch out of its egg. 🐣 The class ended up having 11 chicks hatch. Mrs. Deviney took them to their new home in south central Kansas, where they will live on a farm with pigs, sheep, cows, dogs & cats. The last picture is of their new brooder box & the farm hands who will care for them.

Last week, the anatomy class dissected cow and pig hearts as part of their unit over the cardiovascular system. Most of them weren't afraid to get their hands dirty (don't worry, they wore gloves!). They worked to identify various structures in the heart, and were able to see that pig hearts and cow hearts are virtually the same, aside from the cow heart being much larger. Students always look forward to these dissections and this class did not disappoint! A huge thank you to the Winchester Meat Locker for donating two cow and two pig hearts for this lab!

Last week, the chemistry class did their annual s'mores lab. Each group was given 5 graham crackers, 1 Hershey bar, and 6 marshmallows, and were told to make as many s'mores as possible, but each s'more per group had to be made the same. This deals with a concept known as limiting and excess reagents - a chemical reaction stops when any of the reactants run out. You can't make more s'mores if you run out of ingredients. The kids look forward to this lab every year, and they enjoyed actually being able to eat in chemistry class!

The JCN HS Band performed at State Large Group Festival today to earn a II (Excellent) Rating. Great job to everyone! Also, be on the lookout for kids with band fundraiser forms. We are selling trash bags for $15 a piece. Each sale reduces the cost of next year's St. Louis band trip for the person who sells it.

Dear Families, We love seeing our students staying hydrated and ready to learn! Just a friendly reminder that water is the only beverage students should bring in their water bottles to school. As outlined in our school handbook, soda, soft drinks, and energy drinks are not allowed. Please make sure your child’s water bottle is leak-proof and closes securely—that helps keep backpacks, desks, and floors nice and dry! Thanks for your support in helping us keep everyone clean, healthy, and focused on learning! Sincerely, Dr. Meier
