In Mr. McQuade's and Mr. O'Connor's Chemistry class, students investigated the colligative property of water called freezing point depression by making ice cream. Students used ice and salt to cool the ingredients for ice cream to discover how energy is absorbed from the ingredients and the outside environment.

May 8: WEAR GREEN ON WEDNESDAY
As the official color for mental health awareness, green represents renewal, hope, and vitality. Wearing green symbolizes unwavering support for mental health.

Though it's been a few weeks since our March Madness event, the gratitude we feel for our JFG Dads and community hasn't diminished one bit! Together, we accomplished something truly remarkable, raising over $8,200 for Diana Periera and the Picninic family. This event is a powerful reminder of the strength we possess when we come together. Thank you all for your incredible support and generosity! #JustFocusonGrowing
