Congratulations to our regional spelling bee participant, Rishaan! He made it to the top 10, with 7 contestants being eliminated in the same round, leaving only 3 for the final round to determine the winner. Rishaan was among the last 5 remaining in the competition.
His words were: rubric, foible, olfactory, Tinseltown, and stein. He was eliminated on the word “stein,” where he mistakenly spelled it as “stien.”
Special shoutout to Ayushman and Prateeksha, the other former Tomahawks who were also in the district’s top 5 and made it to the top 10 alongside Rishaan!
We are so proud of all of our students who represented Tomahawk Nation so well!
A Celebration for Andrew Jackson will be held at Andrew Jackson State Park on March 15th, from 10:00 am until 4:00 pm.

4th grade students were visited yesterday by students from ILHS STEAM club. The ILHS students performed several science experiments for the students including Elephant toothpaste, placing a bamboo skewer through an inflated balloon without bursting it and inflating a balloon using baking soda and vinegar. Students also saw an experiment called dancing raisins where raisins were placed in a cup of soda and “danced”. The highlight of the day was when the students got to see a robot in action in the 4th grade hallway.
Thank you, ILHS for visiting!!

3rd graders in Mrs. Bressler's math class had a great time gearing up for the Super Bowl! Students walked around and collected data on who each person wanted to win for the Super Bowl. They then turned it into a picture graph and bar graph and then answered questions about the data they collected. Who did they pick to win??? The Eagles!!!
