Happy Thanksgiving Wildcats!
Let's all do some good this holiday season and help the children in the NICU at Advocate Children's Hospital!!!
This past Tuesday, our 7th grade boys competed in the St Rita math challenge escape room. 17 groups participated...we came in first place AND third place. Way to go guys!
Our sixth grade students recently studied the body systems and are now studying plants. To tie the two areas of study together, they performed a lab experiment using celery and colored water.
The experiment allowed students to review their knowledge of the circulatory system and "capillary" action. The small "vessels" in the celery stalks carry the water and color to the leaves, like the way blood travels through your body.
Isn't that cool?
Where did all these turkeys come from??? PreK-3 through 2nd grade learned about the first Thanksgiving and made turkey crowns during library. The children are so excited to eat turkey and pie next week!

Everyone knows what to do BEFORE Halloween, but what do you do with your Jack-O-Lantern when Halloween is over?
In 4-Year Old Full Day Preschool, we took our "Pumpkin Jack" to the Science Lab to participate in a Chemistry experiment. The Preschooler's watched a chemical reaction between a base of baking soda and an acid of slowly poured vinegar with added food coloring! Everyone was excited to watch the pumpkin erupt during this fun STEM activity!
We then placed a piece of the Jack-o-Lantern in a jar so that the students will be able to observe it slowly decompose. What a fun way to learn about the life cycle of a pumpkin!
We hope to see you all at Mass this morning!
And don't forget, Wildcats can wear red, white & blue today!
