Second Grade Field Trip
The second graders visited Miller Park Zoo in Bloomington to conclude their study of animals in science. Prior to the visit, each student researched one of five animals and wrote a report. They typed their reports and then presented them at the zoo while being led by teachers and chaperones through a scavenger hunt of the entire zoo. It was a fun-filled learning experience!

The Illinois Learning & Technology Purchasing Program (ILTPP) has established a Microsoft purchasing program for all Illinois K-12 teachers, staff and students. These are licenses that students, faculty and staff buy on their own and will personally own forever. In the past, this group would have to pay $499 for Office Professional in local stores. Through this purchasing program, the same product costs less than $90 . Parents and staff can literally save hundreds of dollars and obtain life long learning tools. All pricing and orders can be found at: http://www.cdwg.com/academic/store
