Carol Cooper, local author, Monarch butterfly expert, and former teacher, visited our school today. She talked to our Middle School students all about Monarchs and her role in expanding their population. Then she headed to the library to read her books to the 1st and 3rd graders. 4 lucky students walked away with a signed copy of her book!
Mrs. Batterton's Anatomy class went on a field trip to Evangel University in Springfield. Dr. Tenneson showed the students around the health science building and let the students participate in a couple of lab activities. The students got to feel around a real human cadaver and hold real human bones like a femur, skull, and pelvis. They also got to hold a real human heart!
