ELGS Christmas Breakfast 2011

ELGHS Hydroponics Project
The hydroponics lab is underway at the high school. Hydroponics is a method of growing plants using mineral nutrient solutions, in water, without soil. Terrestrial plants may be grown with their roots in the mineral nutrient solution only or in an inert medium, such as perlite, gravel, mineral wool, or coconut husk. (Source: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydroponics). We have one system growing herbs using a nutrient solution. The cilantro has really taken off since we put it in. We have a second system growing two varieties of peppers. We also have 50 tilapia fish. The agriculture department will be collaborating with Beth Roehl’s culinary arts classes, who will be using the herbs and peppers in their cooking labs.

7th Annual Elkhart Lake - Glenbeulah Education Foundation Fundraiser
Need that Perfect Christmas
Idea for the
“Hard-to-Shop-For” Person? The Elkhart Lake-Glenbeulah Education Foundation will be conducting their sixth annual ornament fundraiser. This year’s ornament design was created by 4th grade student, Connor Wirtz. We will be providing an ornament as an acknowledgement for each donation of $20 to the Foundation. This is a perfect way to contribute in the honor or memory of someone special or as a commemorative stocking stuffer.
In front of the Elementary/Middle School a Christmas tree will be placed that will initially be lit with green lights. For each ornament sold, the green light will be replaced with a colored bulb. This will be our version of the “thermometer” to gauge our progress and hopefully serve as an inspiration to the community to help us “color our tree!” The goal is to sell 200 ornaments.
The ELGHS Relationship Smarts class recently completed a unit about addictions, anorexia and bulimia. The end of the unit project was for the students to create a commercial, poem, song or brochure educating the community about anorexia, bulimia or alcohol and drug addictions. Cora Gross and Aubrey Reitz used their creativity and technology skills to create a commercial educating the public about anorexia and bulimia. The Relationship Smarts class educates teenagers on life situations and career skills that they will need presently as a teenager and in their future as an adult. Watch the full commercial below. It's also available here at this location on www.schooltube.com.
Happy Thanksgiving! Thanksgiving lunch was spearheaded by FCCLA, Culinary Arts and Relationship Smarts. Much appreciated donations came from the ELGS Staff, Community Members and Beth Roehl (FCCLA Advisor). Beth Roehl is the ELGS Family Consumer Education Teacher and FCCLA Advisor. Thank you...Students, Staff, and Community Members for making this another wonderful Thanksgiving!
