Here's what's been happening at Immanuel Lutheran School!
- We are super proud of our mathletes Collin Bittner, Alexis Morales, Erik Olsen, and Aidan Toner. They represented Immanuel for our second year of participation in the IMSA Junior High Math Contest. All of our students did their personal best; one more than doubled his individual score from last year! While our team did not place in the competition, they did receive the highest score in their section and outperformed students from four other middle schools in Batavia and the surrounding area.
- We are also extremely proud of our science scholars who participated in the Science Championship at the International Museum of Surgical Sciences in Chicago: Jorie Anderson, Evan Bloemker, Ryan Bowman, Olivia Groetken, Jack Nelson, and Mason Popp. Two students qualified to advance to the next level of competition in Atlanta, Georgia, and one received a medal as the highest scoring sixth grader!
- There was lots of experiential learning going on this week! Our preschoolers took a field trip to the Batavia Public Library, while third graders visited the Batavia Depot Museum and baked cookies to deliver to the Batavia Police Department. Third grade also had a guest instructor from Junior Achievement teach them about financial literacy and entrepreneurship. Our fourth graders visited Fermilab, and their guest instructor from Junior Achievement helped them build catapults. Fifth graders made historical figures out of bottles, which was a culminating activity to a history lesson in which they read a biography of their choice, wrote a summary, and created an art project. Our seventh grade students have been pen pals with our first graders, writing letters back and forth throughout the school year, and this week the seventh graders visited the first grade classroom to play board games together.
