JES Science Day
The end of the school year always brings first-grade science day. The day gives first-graders the opportunity to explore various scientific principles, while select fourth-graders have the opportunity to teach their younger peers about the concepts behind them. Closely monitored by adult volunteers, students experimented with an electric panel, an oscilloscope, machines, levers and microscopes.
It’s a great opportunity to put all of the concepts they’ve learned throughout the year to the test. Thank you to Mr. Claire Zurbuch, his wife, Kay and Cardinal retiree Gail Duchscherer for volunteering their time to assist with the labs and make this a positive learning experience.
Student Wins Horse Competition
Cardinal High School senior Kailyn F. and her handsome horse Booming to the Top, aka Boomer, were named grand champions in English equitation at the All American Youth Horse Show in Columbus. Kailyn has been riding for almost nine years and competes in various shows throughout the year.
In addition to her grand champion ribbons in Columbus, she also received reserve championship honors in western horsemanship and third place in Western Pleasure Championships. Kailyn competes in equitation, which is the art of horse riding, horsemanship, pleasure, showmanship and jumping. Kailyn says she was surprised about her top finish in Columbus and proud of all of the hard work that she, her horse and her trainer put in.
Preston Donates to District
The Cardinal Local School District thanks Preston Superstore and the Chevy Network for their generous donation to cover the cost of refinishing the Cardinal High School gym floor. Mr. Pat Preston visited the high school on July 3 to see the new floor and to visit with student athletes who are so excited to play on the new hardwood. Mr. Preston then presented a check to athletic director Jimmy Soltis and Superintendent Scott Hunt to cover half the cost of the project. The second half of the project will be paid next year.
The district is so appreciative of Preston’s continued support of its students and district – Cardinal cannot wait to show off the new floor to visitors; the new logo and shine look amazing.
