🍬 Today is National Custodian Appreciation Day! Custodians are on the front lines of keeping our schools clean and safe. Their work provides the foundation for healthy learning and helps us appreciate and care for our shared spaces.

Custodians are Mounds of help.
You always go the Extra mile and become our Lifesavers when we're in a Crunch.
Custodians like you make a Whopper of a difference.
On Payday I’m going to ask Mr. Gravette to give you 100 Grand.
Your favorite Nerds.

🚀 Seventh grade science at Gravette Middle School reached new heights with their final project on the laws of motion. Students designed water-powered rockets, pressurized them with a bike pump, and launched them into the sky to test the principles of force, pressure, and acceleration.
To record the results, students used altitude trackers, standing at a set distance to measure each rocket’s maximum height. These observations gave them real data to compare rocket designs and think critically about what factors helped their rockets fly higher or stay airborne longer. Students saw Newton’s laws move from theory to reality, proving that science is best learned by doing.
This rocket launch is a popular project year after year, and it’s thanks to Mr. Leach’s effort creating classroom activities that are both fun and applicable to the real world. These activities keeps students excited about learning and shows them how science connects to everyday life. The photos capture just 8th period, but every group got the chance to launch and track their own rockets. 🦁🧡 #LionPride #GravetteSchools
