Fourth-grade students explored LaSalle County history during a field trip to Utica this morning. They experienced what farming was like in earlier times, watched a live blacksmith demonstration, and learned about significant local events such as the Cherry Mine Disaster and the story of the Radium Girls. Students also stepped back in time with a visit to a traditional one-room schoolhouse.
Students who sold the most items for the S.O.S Perfect Pastries fundraiser were treated to a special pizza lunch on Friday April 17th. Great job!
Students at Washington enjoyed spending time outside today with the class pet, Sophie!
