As part of a push to include more outdoor hands-on learning, the 7th and 8th grade students learned some history about snowshoes, and tried to design a pair. We then learned how some people make emergency snowshoes out of available materials. So, we went out and tried to see what we could create. What do you think?

Applauding Our Blue Devil Achievers
Let's give a hearty cheer for our standout students of the month!
Sophia Stepan, a 7th grader at our Middle School, is a remarkable student who consistently impresses both her teachers and peers. Her achievements often fly under the radar, but her impact is undeniable.
Our second honoree is Ashaliegh Sulkowski, whose dedication to both academics and sports is unparalleled. We are thrilled to have her represent the Blue Devils with excellence on the fields, Wrestling Mats and in the classroom.
Congratulations to both of these outstanding students!
