Mrs. Koehn and Miss Neidlinger's class participated in Market Day. Through an Economics Unit the students learned about goods and services, supply and demand, and consumers and producers. On Market Day students acted as producers and sold a product they created at home. As well as acting as consumers and buying products that their classmates have created.

Mrs. Koehn's two ELA classes worked on the Tower of Books Challenge throughout January and February. Combined, the two classes read more than 350 books, articles and poems. The reading challenge encouraged them to not only try to read thirty or more books in that time, but to read a wide variety of genres including nonfiction, articles, poetry, book series, and picture books. Two students completed the entire challenge, Tim Reidenbach and Zander Ransom. Congratulations to all the readers and especially those two who really pushed themselves to expand their reading horizons!
