This week in Mrs. Brewer's class, GEAR UP juniors practiced calculating velocity, potential energy, and kenetic energy. They used their new skills to build paper roller coasters that could efficiently roll a marble through 1 loop and 6 turns without flying off the track.
Twenty GEAR UP seniors traveled to Bloomington, IN to view the eclipse within the path of 100% totality. It was a truly amazing opportunity with perfect viewing conditions. The group stayed overnight in Louisville and stopped at UofL Tuesday morning for a college tour.
The track and field meet for tonight has been cancelled due to inclement weather.

You may have noticed a new addition at the public library. It's been a long time coming, but the OCHS Student Leadership Team finally planted their Little Free Pantry. We ask that those in need take only what they immediately need so that we can reach as many people as possible.
From everyone at OCHS, have a Happy Easter and a relaxing spring break! Also, thanks to the Owsley County Public Library and all of our sponsors for your support for our students.
