📜✨ Medieval Masterpieces in the Making! ✨📜
Step back in time with Mr. Clapp's 7th grade history students, who took on the role of medieval monks in this hands-on project! Before the printing press, books had to be copied by hand. Talk about dedication! 💪📖
Students carefully transcribed texts and created their own Illuminated Manuscripts, complete with decorative borders, detailed illustrations, historiated initials (those fancy, oversized letters to start their work)!
The creativity, patience, and craftsmanship on display were incredible! 👏
🏆 Congratulations to our class winners!

💉🍊🍌 Hands-On Learning in Ag Class Today! 🍌🍊💉
Our Ag students rolled up their sleeves (literally!) for a fun and educational injections lab today! They learned how to properly draw up a syringe and practiced injection techniques using oranges and bananas, each offering different textures to simulate real-life scenarios.
From understanding proper angles to safe handling and technique, students gained valuable skills that are especially important for careers in agriculture, animal science, and even healthcare. This type of hands-on experience helps build confidence for those who may one day be responsible for giving vaccinations or caring for animals.
Who knew fruit could be such great teachers? 🍊🍌👏

🌪️🐅 Tornado Drill at WL-S 🐅🌪️
West Liberty-Salem students participated in the statewide tornado drill today at 9:50 AM, as sirens sounded across Ohio as part of this important safety exercise.
The drill served not only as a test of emergency systems, but also as a valuable opportunity to review and practice tornado safety procedures. From elementary through high school, our students responded quickly and did a great job following protocols, while teachers reinforced the importance of staying prepared during severe weather.
And in true WL-S fashion, a few of our Ag students even donned their safety goggles just in case! 😄
We’re proud of our students and staff for taking this seriously while also keeping a positive attitude. Being prepared helps keep everyone safe! 🧡🖤
