It was another fun-filled, busy week for these #WatertownWay Great Gardeners in Mrs. Avila’s Summer School Great Gardening class! Students took a deeper look at various flower and vegetable seeds (size, shape, and color differences), planted six different herbs in their containers, tended to their plants in the greenhouse, decorated their grass head container, planted grass seed, made festive Fourth of July garden signs, continued to care for the outdoor garden by watering and seeing the progress of the growing vegetables, and of course, enjoying the company of the chickens while gardening. Keep up the fantastic work gardeners!

Our #WatertownWay Chapter of the National German Honor Society honored the service rendered by its graduating seniors with a Presentation of Thanks by newly-elected officers. Outgoing officers challenged their successors to continue building on the foundation that has been laid, and offered advice based on their experience. Outgoing Co-Chancellor Jackson Barta passed the figurative baton, in the form of a “Mass,” or “Krug,” to newly-elected Chancellor Ava Ashenfelter. The “Krug” tradition began in 2021 with then outgoing Chancellor Elias Adrian’s charge to the membership. As a heavy object, it symbolizes the responsibility of leadership, not to be taken lightly. With a beautiful snow scene, it depicts the beauty and joy of exploring a new culture. Outgoing Vice-Chancellor Jillian Matamoros donated one of her German LPs to the organization, and helped procure a record player on which to play it. How awesome!

These Book Club Fanatics have been exploring nonfiction texts. Yesterday they learned all about chickens, and were able to take their learning outside to observe the chickens at WHS! The students worked hard on reporting facts and drawing diagrams. They also learned that there are eight times as many chickens as humans on Earth, and that chickens are the closest thing we have to dinosaurs!
