St. Elmo Holiday Tournament
8th Grade Girls Regionals hosted by Stewardson-Strasburg.
Mr. Jason was the guest reader in Mrs. Stuckemeyer's class and Miss K's Class created books to share with the First Graders.
The Fifth Graders built catapults today in Social Studies. They learned catapults have been around for a really, really long time. Catapults were for military use.
The weather outside might be frightful, but conditions in the Beecher City High School greenhouse are quite fine for growing vegetables! Mrs. Doedtman and her Plant & Animal Science class have sweet potatoes, lettuce, and cucumbers coming along nicely. The compost bins that Mr. Tarr and students recently built are also being well used.
