Students in Miss Dallazia’s ELD classes spent the last half of this week getting ready for Thanksgiving. Students discussed what it means to be thankful and brainstormed what they are most grateful for. The students enjoyed the activities and it was great to see them listing their classmates alongside their families. All the students did a wonderful job and it led to really meaningful class discussions.

Mr. Prusinowski's 8th grade Math classes have been working on honing their Tools of Algebra skills: understanding and defining a variable; order of operations; evaluating algebraic expressions; and combining like terms. In Mr. Prusinowski's 8th grade Science classes, students have been learning about the nature of science including the steps of the scientific method. We have now turned our attention to the function of the human body's major systems like the digestive system, nervous system, etc. Our class will now be focusing on the characteristics of life and the structure and function of both single-celled and multicellular organisms. The pictures below highlight some of that work!

7th and 8th graders made pasta with homemade Alfredo sauce this week.

Select students at Log College celebrated the conclusion of the 1st marking period on Friday morning during the quarterly Achievement Breakfast. Students were selected by their team's faculty members for demonstrating outstanding achievement, improvement, or for positively contributing to the Log College Community.

Congratulations to Log College's students of the month!

Dear Log College Families,

Winter Sports season is quickly approaching here at Log College. The Winter sports season runs from November through February and features four sports open to our 7th and 8th-grade students. Log College will be offering Boys Basketball, Girls Basketball, Wrestling, and Cheerleading. We are pleased to announce that, for the first time (if enough students try out), we will have Junior Varsity (JV) teams for both boys and girls basketball, providing more students with the opportunity to participate in winter sports. It's important to note that these are not exclusively 7th or 8th-grade teams but are composed of a mix of both grades.

If your child is planning to participate in any of these sports, he/she must have a physical. No student may play or practice until a physical has been received.

PIAA sports physical -

• All students must have a completed PIAA physical (dated after June 1, 2023). The physical forms can be downloaded from the link - PIAA Physical Form - Updated 3/22/23 (or you can pick one up from Mr. Corey, our athletic director or any LCMS coaches).

• If you have already played a sport in the Fall, you do not need to complete a new physical, but you must re-submit section 7 (Re-certification by parent/guardian) from the PIAA physical form. This page does not require seeing a doctor or medical provider.

• If you did not submit a PIAA physical in the Fall, you must complete Sections 1 to 5 within the PIAA sports physical packet. This must be completed and signed by a parent or guardian. Section 6 must be completed by an authorized medical examiner (family doctor, urgent care, minute clinic). You can ignore pages 7-8.

• If you cannot find an appointment time with your doctor, you may use another provider or visit a CVS Minute Clinic or visit an Urgent Care center. The Centennial School District has a partnership with Liberty Urgent Care:

If you use any of the following Liberty Urgent Care centers and mention Centennial SD, your physical will only cost $20. (Locations listed below)
