Mrs. Thompson’s Physical Science students recently designed and built mousetrap cars. Students had to design and construct a car that was powered solely by one mousetrap. The cars needed to travel 20 feet. Students learned the importance of potential and kinetic energy and how energy relates to force and motion. Our top five mousetrap car distances were: Bryce Niebrugge @ 74 feet, Mathew Habing @ 67 feet, Adrienne Koester @ 65 feet, Gavin Althoff @ 63 feet, and Ali Bloemer and Emily Meyer @ 60 feet.

Just a reminder that the Class of 2023 can stop by the high school office to pick up their 2022-2023 yearbook if they haven't already done so. If another person picks up the yearbook, they must sign next to the student's name.
