8th grade students completed their unit on Worm Composting! These kids successfully grew microgreens (salad greens) over a timeframe of 7 days. The potted plants shown here all received different types of fertilizers - but the one that received worm fertilizer did the best!
High school students in Spanish classes had a great time this week! They prepared a few special recipes as a class project. All were authentic dishes from Spain.
