At the end of May, our sixth-grade students will have the exciting opportunity to visit JA BizTown. This initiative aims to provide them with real-world experiences in the realms of financial literacy and technical soft skills, preparing them for their future endeavors. During this visit, students will take on specific job roles, earning a "salary" of "BizTown Bucks" while applying their knowledge in practice. To secure their positions, students went through a job application process, including an interview conducted by our teachers. They practiced essential skills such as making eye contact, delivering a firm handshake, and articulately expressing why they would excel in the roles that they applied for.

On Monday, April 8, the seventh grade students at Campbellsport Middle School took a field trip to the Milwaukee Public Museum. The museum served as a dynamic platform for reinforcing key concepts from their classes. For example, by engaging in hands-on exploration within real-world environments, students gained a deeper appreciation of Earth's geographical features and areas of the world studied in Geography. Students also had the opportunity to observe various rock formations and identify different types of minerals which is a focus in Science. It was a memorable experience which created lasting memories for students.
