Elevate Monthly

Last week was National School Lunch Week! All meals were free, and our Nutrition Services Department cooked up some creative pirate-themed meals for the week. So, we have to ask:

Be sure to check out next month's edition of Elevate Monthly for the final results.

Last Month's Poll: Which high school did YOU attend growing up?

Check out the results at the bottom of the newsletter.

Did you know LCSD1 serves an average of 8,800 cartons of milk every day?

If one cow produces about six gallons per day, it takes about 92 cows to produce enough milk every day to fuel LCSD1 students!

#LCSD1DidYouKnow

Fourth grade students at Freedom Elementary are learning about the circulatory system. To enhance their learning, the Laramie County Community College STEM trailer visited the students and allowed them to play with their virtual reality software to explore the human heart.

As an added bonus, LCCC brought hissing cockroaches for the students to examine!

Triumph High students have been learning about collisions in science class.

The students tested different types of collisions using everyday items. One group used cantaloupes to simulate a human head while testing out different protective gear.

Buffalo Ridge kindergarteners are learning about our five senses and had the opportunity to test them out during their visit to Windy Creek Farm. One student explored his hearing with a sound wall, while others used their sense of touch in the corn pit.

Students at Willadsen did research on careers they are interested. Check out their awesome presentations! 🥼🏇👩🏻‍🏫

Students at Carey Junior High crafted bottle rockets before testing their designs. 🚀

Firefighters visited Cole Elementary to teach kindergarteners about fire safety, how firefighters dress to protect themselves and what tools they carry on a firetruck. 🚒
