The 6th grade class traveled to Elkhorn Lake with the Chesapeake Bay Foundation guides on October 20, 2021. We tested the water quality of the lake, learned canoeing techniques, discussed pollution, seined in the river, and enjoyed the beautiful colors of the fall. We are happy to report that Elkhorn Lake has excellent water quality!
Mr. Dan and Emory Brooks Foster made an appearance in Kindergarten as Zero the Hero!
