Shop class's Ratrod is starting to take shape as welding students patch the frame and auto students mock up the tires and the box to check clearances. Students are designing shirts, making facebook reels, designing frame alterations, welding, measuring, and most of all....figuring it out and making it happen! The students smiles and enthusiasm make it all worth it.

Students in Miss Merriman and Mrs. Shimmin’s Pre-Vet class have been learning about the four digestive systems found in animals: avian, ruminant, pseudo-ruminant, and monogastric. To deepen their understanding, students connected each system’s functions to common household items that serve a similar purpose.

Can you guess which digestive system humans have?
