** Boys Basketball Update ** HS Boys Basketball at Grayville for tonight will be a Varsity only game starting at 6pm

During this hands-on investigation, students explored changes in states of matter by designing and building boats. to hold and float their snowmen” As their snowmen changed from a solid to a liquid, students conducted a scientific experiment focused on measuring mass, observing volume changes, collecting data over time, and analyzing how buoyancy affected their boat designs. This project allowed students to apply key science concepts while also strengthening skills in engineering design, data collection, measurement, and critical thinking. It was wonderful to see students problem-solve, collaborate, and explain the science behind their results.

** HS Boys Basketball Change ** Due to the IHSA Girls Basketball Regional Championship being scheduled for 2/19. We are having to move the boys game vs. Wayne City game from 2/19 to 2/16, 6:15pm JV start time with varsity to follow.
