Special thanks to the AP French students and Ms. Trahan for providing this special opportunity for the Geckos!

Earlier this week, the 5th grade students at Gilkey Elementary went on an adventure where they spent time panning for gold in the Nature Lab to finish up their unit on the Gold Rush. Students traveled back in time to 1849 to travel on the Oregon Trail to pan for gold, led by Prospector Jack.
It was a great experience, as students earned and collected gold through various activities in the Nature Lab. In the end, they could use their gold to purchase from the General Store. What a great learning experience for the Geckos!
As a reminder, there is no school from May 26-29. Have a great weekend! Go Trojans!
Due to a field trip returning late to campus, all elementary and secondary (Middle/High School) bus routes will be running late today (Wednesday, May 24).
Thank you for your understanding - GO TROJANS!
