This is a reminder that our town hall meeting discussing the Special Education millage will be held tomorrow at Jonesville High School at 5:30. If you look at this data it shows that a house value of $155,000 would have an increase of around $13 a month. Come out tomorrow to ask any questions you have!

As a final project, in Mr. Lewandowski's Earth Science class, students were to use what they learned about the Earth and create their own world and creatures to live within it. Students had to take into account the cycles of the planet (i.e. What will the alien breathe?), a food source, how the alien will be protected from cosmic radiation, and how the alien will interact with its environment. Students then wrote a paper over their world and aliens as well as presented their artistic representation to the class.
Check out our students' hard work!
