Our Horticultural class harvested their first aquaponic zucchini, cucumber, and lettuce of the year! After harvesting, they learned how to prepare fried zucchini and had a delicious mid-afternoon snack. We are excited to see what else is harvested from our crops!
The Seniors planned their day to spend together. Hiking at William B. Umstead State Park, grilling out with hamburgers and hotdogs, laser tag at Galaxy Fun Park, go kart racing, and mini golf. They ended the day with shopping and dinner at the mall.
Jessica Norris, Cedrick White, and the 6th-8th graders completed their math activity for the day. They practiced their estimation and measuring skills, estimating the length or width of the item in feet. Then they measured the item to see how many inches it was and if they estimated correctly.
