Mr. Thompson's 5th-grade class took a hard hat tour of the Grand Coulee Dam. During the visit, the students explored 14 miles of tunnels within the dam, one of its three powerhouses, and the pumphouse that supplies the Banks Lake reservoir with millions of gallons of water. Finally, the students rode an elevator to the top of the dam, where they enjoyed a bird's-eye view from 500 feet above the water's surface below.
Mrs. Starr's and Miss Bushnell's class went on a spring adventure at the Ferry Conservation District Outdoor Education Center. The second-grade students learned about bees and their behavior, and they had the opportunity to look inside a working bee hive. Next, they discovered how to use a scientific key to identify local plants and learned the proper way to plant seeds. Finally, the students applied their knowledge in a challenge to save the city of Wobblyville from soil erosion caused by a massive rainstorm.
After lunch, the students were taken to Mud Lake, where local birdwatching enthusiasts introduced them to the art of birdwatching.
A big thank you goes out to Mckenzi Hilderbrant and Dave Hedrick from the Ferry Conservation District, Rochelle Osborne from the Ferry County Weed Board, and Bill Chamberlin and Gregg Wilson for their expertise, and support, which contributed to making this ROAR adventure a huge success.

What an awesome day for our Republic Elementary students and the ROAR program!
Mrs. Sage's class had the amazing opportunity to visit Stonerose, where they learned all about the geologic periods, the Earth's plate tectonics, and the fossils that can be found right here in our backyard. They got hands-on as they broke apart rocks and discovered the best methods for finding fossils! 🪨
A huge THANK YOU to Travis Wellman from Stonerose for making this such a fun and educational experience for our students.
