Will also hit many shots to add an additional 11 points. The second half was a slow start for the Falcons.

Mrs. Fatura’s 9th and 10th grade physical science class started a unit on forces and motion by competing in a paper football challenge. Each student or pair of students, had to follow instructions to make a paper football. Then, tests were conducted and data was collected on which of three possible methods of flicking produced the furthest flight as well as how adding paper clips affected the performance of the football. The winning flick was 165 inches (13.75 feet) by Logan Fatura! It was a fun activity and coincided well with the Super Bowl this weekend!
Thursday was "Chinchilla Day" in the art room with Marley the chinchilla and her owner, Miss Gracie Powers! First grade and Kindergarten artists got to observe, pet and draw pictures of Marley while they listened to an informative presentation. Thank you Miss Gracie!
