Today, Mrs. Patterson took the senior class on a visit to Friesen Ford of Aurora. During the visit, students were given a tour of the dealership, had the opportunity to explore several vehicles, and—most importantly—received valuable guidance on what to look for, which questions to ask, and how the car-buying process works from Louie Soto, Ethan Kuhn, and Ryan Detterman. They also took time to answer students’ questions throughout the tour and made several trips inside to retrieve keys so students could access different vehicles.
We sincerely thank Friesen Ford for their time, hospitality, and willingness to accommodate our group during their business day, as well as for providing refreshments for the students.

🚧It's a nice day for some dirt work!🚧 Dirt work at the high school began on March 9th. The crew began by removing the top layer of soil from the hill and installing a culvert for construction traffic. After the top layer of soil was removed the crew started bringing in the correct type of soil for compacting and building back up the hill.
The 1-3 graders had the chance to experience a STEM Day field trip sponsored by the Extension Office. The students rotated to 6 stations and were treated to a presentation by the Edgerton Expolrit Center's Raptor Recovery Center. Pictured here are 2nd graders being engineers, touching a Madagascar Cockroach, and meeting the bald eagle. Thank you to Brandy VanDeWalle for this opportunity.

Today, Mrs. Patterson’s 5th period personal finance class participated in a housing tour led by Realtor Karla Jacobson. Students visited four homes in the Geneva area, with properties varying in age and listing price. During the tour, Karla generously provided Casey's pizza and drinks from Brick Road, where students were able to take a break and enjoy a meal.
Special thanks to Megan Burda and the team at Brick Road for their hospitality in accommodating our group. Throughout the experience, Karla and Mrs. Patterson shared valuable insights on what to look for in a home, important questions to ask, and strategies for adding value to a property. This hands-on opportunity was designed to help students gain a clearer understanding of the home-buying process as they prepare for future homeownership.
**HUGE THANK YOU to the community members and future community members that allowed Mrs. Patterson and her class to tour your homes!!!

During the month of February, our elementary PE teachers, Mr. Sherman and Mr. Eberhardt, brought the excitement of the Winter Olympics to life with a variety of fun and active games. Students had the chance to try creative versions of bobsledding, curling, and speed skating right in the gym. They worked on teamwork, balance, coordination, and sportsmanship while learning about different Olympic events. It was a great way to keep students moving, engaged, and excited about staying active during the winter months.
