In this hands-on lab, students packed a lot of chemistry into one experiment. While investigating single replacement reactions, they explored the activity series of metals and saw oxidation-reduction (redox) reactions happening in real time. By testing how different metals interact in solution, students were able to visualize which metals are more reactive and how those differences drive chemical change.
We connected this work to prior learning, reinforcing concepts from earlier single replacement reactions and introducing “redox runs” as a way to track electron transfer. Even more importantly, students tied these reactions to the real world by relating them to corrosion—an everyday process affecting metals all around us. This lab gave students a clear, visual understanding of how abstract concepts like reactivity and electron transfer play out in practical, observable ways.

Eight enthusiastic 4th graders truly excelled in the Lego Robotics Club this year! Working with the Lego Spike Prime kits, the students sharpened their critical thinking and problem-solving skills as they navigated the complexities of both engineering and programming! Their commitment to helping one another and working as a team turned every technical hurdle into a shared victory!
Run camp forms are going home today for current grades 3-6.
Girls basketball shooting clinic for current grades 2-7 will be going home tomorrow.
Don't forget to bring in your money for Tattoo the Teacher! This is a fundraiser hosted by our field day committee to raise money for Kona Ice on Field Day! $1 for 2 tattoos

Elementary Camp forms for volleyball, basketball, and soccer are being sent home this week. Forms can also be found on athletics website. Please note that volleyball camp is for grades 1-6 for the 26/27 school year. All others are for grades 3-8.
Congratulations to these first graders for passing all of their addition and subtraction Rocket Math Facts! 🥳🎉
More pictures of our second graders at Carillon Park!
Friday was a beautiful day for our Carillon Park field trip! Our second graders learned so much about Dayton and Ohio's history and inventions. It was a meaningful and fun trip!
Congratulations to both Jordan Stiles and Phebe Vergara, who both placed first in their age groups at the zone God, flag, and country contest Saturday! They will both move on to the state competition on May 2nd! 🇺🇸
Baseball at Houston is cancelled for today. Make up date is TBD.
The Minster Memorial track meet will delay one hour from initial start time. Field events will begin at 10:00 and running at 11:00.
Beautiful day to visit Carillon Park! Second grade had a blast! ☀️
Students in Mr. Halko's American History class completed their Acronym posters. The posters display different organizations that fought for more equal rights for their respective minority groups primarily throughout the 1900s.
Congratulations to the K-3 Rangers of the week! These students represent their Ranger Pride through inclusion. We are so proud of these kids who always include others and make everyone feel loved. Keep up the great work, Rangers!
Mrs. Mele's first grade class got to experience the Lifecycle of a Butterfly first hand. We watched the metamorphosis of our four teeny tiny caterpillars into butterflies. Then
today we released our butterflies out into the world.
