Ms. Day’s 3rd grade class wrapped up their CKLA unit on body systems with an exciting hands-on celebration! The classroom transformed into an “emergency room,” where students completed a variety of tasks and challenges related to the human body systems they had studied. To top it all off, they enjoyed a special themed treat — “brains” made from Rice Krispie treats!

Our kindergarten through fourth grade students had an unforgettable afternoon at our Emergency Personnel Showcase!
We were honored to welcome officers from the Douglas County Sheriff's Office, an officer from the Kansas Highway Patrol, a member from Lawrence-Douglas County Fire and Medical, and Consolidated Fire District No. 1.
Students had the chance to explore emergency vehicles up close and learn all about the important work these first responders do to keep our community safe.
A huge thank you to all of our visiting emergency personnel for spending the afternoon with us and inspiring our students! 💙
