The students may be away, but the work never takes a summer break!
Today we found Mr. Heffner locked in—literally—switching out locker combinations one by one to make sure everything is ready for the first day back.

It’s quiet in the halls now, but it won’t be for long—and thanks to behind-the-scenes prep like this, we’ll be ready.

Before school ended… guess what we released? Take a closer look 👀 Can you spot what’s hiding in the grass? 🐟 Yes—trout fingerlings! Also called parr, these tiny fish use their stripes (called parr marks) to blend right into their surroundings. Camouflage level: expert. Good luck out there, little swimmers!
