Foundations in Education skills center students have been busy this fall touring local CVSD schools! During their visits they had the opportunity to meet many of the amazing professionals that serve our CVSD students. However, their favorite part was getting to spend time with K-5 students in their classes, during lunch, and recess!

Tri-Tech students suited up, scrubbed in and took on the ultimate Halloween operation: the pumpkinectomy!
They explored different surgical roles while carving pumpkins in all shapes and sizes, then delivered their creations to local retirement homes and nursing facilities.
Talk about a gourd deed! 👻

Ninth graders enrolled in health class have been learning about stress and healthy ways to cope with it. They started with a game called “Come on Six,” which simulates stress and the physiologic response to stress. After this fun (and stressful!) game, they participated in different stress coping stations. By the end of the stress lessons, each student developed a “Stress Aid Kit,” full of at least five strategies they can use when they are feeling stressed. Great work 9th graders!
