Merry Christmas!
Today, our 7th & 8th grade students were out spreading holiday cheer 🎄
First, they joined the elementary students for some joyful Christmas caroling.
Then, they visited the Lakota Good Samaritan to share music and smiles with the resident's. ❤️
We're so proud of their kindness and holiday spirit! Special Thank you to Andi Wohlers for helping make this happen!!

LHS Biology class has been busy this week preparing for their Biome Project Presentations. Each student was randomly assigned an Earth biome to research, make a representative poster, and present about it to the class. They needed to describe biotic features, like animals and vegetation; abiotic features, like average temperature and precipitation; geographic locations; and other fun facts of their choice. They were to have researched at least 3 reliable sources and cite them during their speech. Great job, Sophomores!

The LHS River Watch students joined 3rd Graders again today, but on a field trip to the City of Lakota Water Plant. Here they got to see firsthand the process and the machinery involved in treating and then distributing clean water to city homes and businesses. This is the final installment of their project, which was to educate younger students about how water goes from "Cloud to Consumer." Special thanks goes to Mrs. Jill Wall and building principals Mr. Snyder and Mr. Preble for allowing River Watch students to coordinate these sessions. Thank you 3rd grade students for your eagerness to learn and your enthusiasm. Lastly, thank you to Josh Ulland and Joey Ross for leading the Water Plant tour, and to Amie Vasichek and Nancy Skogen at City Hall for organizing swag bags for the kids!!
