Last week, students at Westside Elementary enjoyed participating in an experiment with electricity. Clark Planetarium came to the school to teach students about electricity, matter, and the solar system. It was indeed a 'hair raising' experience!
On Monday and Tuesday before Thanksgiving, students at Westside Elementary participated in the Turkey Fun Run. Student council members were on hand to give out tickets for laps completed. At the end of the day, drawings for prizes were awarded. The Turkey Run is an annual event designed to keep students active before the big Thanksgiving meal.
