8th Grade S.T.E.M. learned how surgeons trained for laparoscopic surgery and got to try it out themselves! The goal was to complete a simple task in a box using a grabber, and the only way to see what they were doing was to look at the live feed from a webcam inside the box.

Due to a shortage of football officials, the varsity football game scheduled for October 24 versus Clark County has been moved to October 23. Senior night will take place at 6:15 PM on October 23. The elementary music concert scheduled for October 23 has moved their start time to 7 PM to avoid conflict with senior night. GO COUGARS!!
