Mrs. Shahan's class had a little fun with Halloween science making "Witches Brew". Students tried mixing different kitchen ingredients with "Troll Saliva"(vinegar) to see if their brew would bubble. We found out that "Crushed Dragon's Teeth" (baking soda) causes a bubbling reaction.
Mrs Ballengee’s class made pumpkins using a balloon, yarn, and glue. Their pumpkins turned out so good!
Next week is Book Fair Week! Students will shop during Mrs. Sanders’ gym time.

Wood County Schools has made a change regarding the caller ID number for all mass calls and texts in which we want you to be aware. Previously, all mass calls made from Wood County Schools, used for emergencies or other important information, whether from the central office or from any individual school, used the number (304) 420-9520 for the caller ID. Starting today, all school mass calls will show a caller ID number that is the same as the school's main telephone number. District calls will continue to show a caller ID of (304) 420-9520. The caller ID number for any individual school may be verified by visiting the school's webpage and finding the phone number in the footer of the page.
