Elevate 2025 is off and "rolling"! Our first lesson this year was on potential and kinetic energy. Students constructed cars and we've discovered that the current designs are either too heavy or that the "engines" are insufficient in generating the necessary force. We will refine our designs and see what happens!

For the last couple of weeks, the junior high students have been writing their persuasive speeches. To help us out, two high school speechsters gave their persuasive speeches for the 7th grade class. Senior, Lily V. performed her persuasive speech on the value of travel, and sophomore, Jacob P. explained the benefits of learning a foreign language.
