On October 24th, the 7th/8th graders went to the Reptarium in Utica. This amazing mini zoo has a plethora of reptiles and other animal ambassadors in naturalistic enclosures and offered opportunities for the students to learn about these creatures in a completely hands-on way. All of the students held lizards and snakes, petted tortoises, and even gave a tarantula a high five. It was a really cool experience. The highlight of the day was when the class got to hold a huge Burmese Python. Mrs. Dominowski wasn't so sure about it (she may have screamed a little bit). After the presentation, the class went to Dave & Buster's for lunch and some fun in the arcade.

It's that time of year again... Time to make 3,500 apple pies. The 5th through 8th graders were a huge help on Friday. They worked all day peeling apples, delivering apples to tables, sweeping floors, and various other apple related jobs. I was very proud of how hard they worked and how well behaved they were. I received many compliments from members of our congregation. Well done 5th-8th graders!!!!
The 5th and 6th graders had an awesome time exploring Weiss farm in Frankenmuth. They learned many things about the dairy farm that is run by the Weiss family. They even got a behind the scenes look at the high tech milking machine on the farm. After a hay ride and some lunch, the class got to go on an adventure in the corn maze. The theme of this year's maze was "More Than Milk." It showcased many of the surprising products we use that come from cows, besides their obvious milk. It was a great day!
