Grafton Elementary 3rd graders tackled a fun STEM challenge using only marshmallows and toothpicks to build the tallest towers they could.
Through plenty of trial, error, and teamwork, our young engineers learned the power of working together and thinking critically. Way to go, 3rd grade! 🍡📐

A big THANK YOU to the employees of Jersey State Bank! They donated $725 as well as supplies to the JCHS Learning Lab to purchase clothing and supplies for students in need.
From JSB Chief Operations Officer Kim Murray: "The money was collected from our employees. On Fridays we can wear jeans and donate. Each quarter we select an organization to receive our funds. We felt a tug on our heart strings when talking with Erica Heitzig last year. After visiting today, we know the funds will be used to benefit so many. Thank you for the opportunity. Have a wonderful school year."
