Kris Johnson’s 4/5/6 class at Totem Falls Elementary took on a STEM challenge with a sweet twist! Using teamwork, the students used random materials to design and build candy grabbers. The challenge was to use these creative contraptions to pick up pieces of candy from a distance without crossing the boundary of the outer circle.

With innovation and collaboration, they put their engineered designs to the test, problem-solving their contraptions along the way. The students cheered each other on as they each tested their grabbers. It was the perfect equations of teamwork, creativity, and Valentine’s Day fun!

Ready, set, kick! Kathryn Oswood’s 4th graders at Seattle Hill Elementary took science to the next level by investigating how the force of a kick changes a ball’s motion!

With a little creativity and a lot of curiosity, they designed a fair test—making sure to change just one variable while collecting data on energy and movement. Their challenge? Build a system to simulate a foot kicking a ball—one that’s both manageable and measurable in the classroom.

Science in action, one kick at a time!

Who knew p**p could be so educational? Glacier Peak High School AP Animal Science students in Alisa Ashmon's class recently got down and dirty learning how doctors and veterinarians use f***l samples to detect common livestock parasites. From microscopes to manure, these future animal experts are proving that science stinks (in the best way possible)!

Three Snohomish High School (SHS) career and technical education students recently participated in a SkillsUSA regional event in Mount Vernon, with two advancing to the state event by finishing among the top three in their categories. SHS teachers Brad Johnson, Matt Johnson, and Linsey Turski are SHS SkillsUSA advisors.

Skills Demonstration Open - This flexible category allows participants to showcase skills that might not fit other specific categories.
• SHS freshman Samantha Waugh, who will advance to the state event, performed a basic ballet dance routine for judges. The routine was designed to be teachable to beginning elementary-aged students.
• Judging considers dance technique, age-appropriateness, teaching ability, and presentation skills.

Related Technical Math - This competition tests students' ability to solve mathematical problems common in skilled trades and technical fields:
• SHS junior Elizabeth Bogen, who will advance to the state event, participated in this competition which includes a written test covering areas such as number systems, geometry, algebra, and statistics. Problems often relate to real-world technical scenarios.
• Focus is on problem-solving skills rather than just computation.

Pin Design Washington
• SHS freshman Sofia Stankey designed a pin representing Washington state. The pin design that wins at state moves on to be mass printed at nationals for pin trading with other states. The pin design should embody the spirit of Washington and SkillsUSA.
• Judging considers creativity, craftsmanship, and state representation.

SkillsUSA is a national organization that supports students preparing for careers in trade, technical, and skilled service occupations. It fosters partnerships between students, teachers, and industry representatives to ensure a skilled American workforce.

Congrats students!
