#VanguardPride 7th grade math kicked off their upcoming geometry units by celebrating Pi Day on 3/14! The students were given a breakout box in which they had to research Pi and it’s significance in order to crack the codes to get into the box! When they finally cracked all of the codes, they were surprised to find Pi Day cookies made by Mrs. Meinholz and her mom in the breakout boxes! It was very fun to watch their enthusiasm and perseverance throughout the activity and the look of surprise and gratitude with their sweet rewards!
As part of the Kids Heart Challenge from the American Heart Association, the #VanguardPride elementary school students have been participating in "Jump Rope for Heart" activities during their gym classes all week. This years' motto is "Be the Torch".
Mr. Austin taught the kids about the challenge and set up stations around the gym so they could try different ways to jump rope! Forward, backward, one footed, etc. and then with Mr. Austin turning the rope for them!
What a fun and great way to get the kids moving, and to raise awareness for children's heart health! 💖

#VanguardPride 4th graders celebrated the end of the Holes novel study and designed shoes to represent a character from the book. They used symbols and colors to show their knowledge of the characters' personalities. Stanley, Zero, Kate Barlow, and The Warden all have some new footwear. Can you match the shoe to the character? 👟👞👡
On Thursday afternoon, #VanguardPride high school students toured ETC in Mazomanie to learn about employment opportunities at this global leading company.
Along with fantastic career opportunities, they learned there are many terrific summer jobs for students age 16 and up!
Mrs. Johnson’s 6th grade Science classes continued learning about fungi. Students were able to examine Baby Bella and Shiitake mushrooms. The classes worked in small groups and used magnifying glasses to identify and locate the parts of the mushrooms: stem, cap, spores, gills, and hyphae. Students were then able to compare the similarities and differences between the two types of mushrooms.
#VanguardPride 6th graders continue to discover the wonderful world of Life Science!

6th graders in Mrs. Johnson’s Science class are conducting a lab on the effect water plays on creating fungus (mold) on bread. Students prepared bread samples using hot/cold water, white/ wheat bread, and storing it in a light/dark place. Students made predictions and will check their samples in one week and record and discuss their findings.
#VanguardPride students are doing a fabulous job making a hypothesis, monitoring their sample, and recording the data!
