We kicked off this year’s STEAM Saturday, where students explored the world of apples through hands-on science activities. They learned about the lifecycle of an apple, from seed to fruit, and conducted experiments to investigate the density of apples, and whether they would sink or float. They then created their own boats from an apple, and tested their ability to float. We had apple smiles for a snack, and then concluded with a fun and creative twist as students made their own apple-scented slime, combining science with sensory play!

It's homecoming week! Today is pajama day!
The students in Mrs. Current's Introduction to Business class got to apply their skills to paycheck scavenger hunt.
The students had to locate where net pay and gross pay were located on a paycheck. They were able to tell if a person was paid weekly, or bi-weekly. The students also had to figure the amount of deductions that were taken out of that paycheck.
Saturday morning, the Attica DECA Chapter participated in the Heritage Days at the riverfront. The students served coffee, hot chocolate and cookies to the patrons that attended the festival.
This was the organization's first community event. The students represented Attica, Seeger and Fountain Central schools with advisor Mrs. Current, Business Instructor.
Students: Ethan, Adam, Sam, Mason, Adalyn, Annika, Morgyn and Mrs Current
Living History Days were presented to local 4th graders by Illiana Antique Power Association. Students visited stations to learn about history through sight, touch, smell, and taste. The staff interacted with our students to pass on stories and teach the trades of our past.
🌟 AES Student Council in Action 🌟 Six of our AES Student Council members were invited to take part in the Attica 200 Bicentennial celebrations! From grinding flour and making bricks, to boring logs and navigating a replica canal lock, our students had the chance to step back in time and experience the roots of our hometown, Attica. What an incredible opportunity for them to connect with history while celebrating our community’s 200 years!
The AHS and AES staff enjoyed a cookout today. Thank you to Officer Kyle Askren for grilling and Sarah Mattern and students for the sides and desserts!
