The Borromeo School Bulletin
Note from Dr. Mullenschlader
One of most fun parts of my job is getting to go from room to room each day and seeing what our bobcats are learning. If you have an 8th grader, you probably are aware of what they were learning this week because it was the talk of the 8th grade. For the rest of our bobcat families, 8th grade was learning about...owl pellets! Now, why was this a hot-topic? Because they were pulling out animal skeleton parts out of the owl pellets. It was a fascinating lesson for the students to learn about the skeletal system. They were able to compare the different animal skeletons the human skeleton system. And, they were so invested in what they were finding. Maybe we have some future animal conservationists? The picture to the right illustrates my point.
How awesome was Trivia Night? What a great job by Jamie Ovlia, Jessica Fahrenhorst and their team. We raised over $11,000 and had a quite a bit of fun in the process. Here is something I learned about trivia nights, if you wait till the end to do a "finish the lyrics category" pretty much everyone will get the answers correct because everyone is singling along by the end of the night. Thanks for attending and hope to see even more families attend next year.
