Students in AP Stats put theory into practice with a blind taste test project!
Using what they've learned about experimental designs, students paired up name-brand and off-brand food items and assessed whether doing the taste test "blind" or not blind had an effect on which item was preferred.
This included different brands of soda, cereal, crackers, cookies, and gummy bears!
Last night, the La Crescent Lions Club held a dinner to celebrate their Peace Poster Contest. There were 64 total entries, and the winners were selected by Mr. Phil Addis, local photographer. All of the entries were amazing with so much detail! The theme was “We Are All Connected.” Pictured are the La Crescent-Hokah Middle School winners Aspen Tarrence, Mady Dontje, and Mya Timm with art teacher Nicole Greener.
The 5th graders participated in the 1st ever "Call to Earth Day" by cleaning up the ditch.
Mrs. Johnson's advisory also cleaned up the playground this morning as well.
Certified staff received their Union apparel that they were able to purchase through an OFS grand they earned and wore it last Friday to show their support and solidarity for one another and for their negotiators for the work they did.
Notice: The emergency School Board meeting scheduled for tonight has been canceled.
