Officer Larkin and her K9 partner, Lucy, recently visited Mrs. Wilt’s Business and Personal Law class at BVHS. Together, they make up a certified Mantrailing Team. Lucy is specially trained to follow the unique scent of a person, while Officer Larkin is skilled in interpreting Lucy’s cues during a search. Students had the opportunity to watch an engaging demonstration of their teamwork in action. Experiences like this highlight the many connections between Business and Personal Law and real-world fields such as Criminal Justice—one of several career paths that inspire students to take the course.

Horticulture has been learning about flower anatomy lately. Recently they studied how plants carry water and nutrients up the stem through translocation. They did an experiment dying flowers with colored water and were able to dissect a sunflower to see the parts of the stem!

Storm Nation, catch up on all the action!

From a dominant F/S football win under the lights, to a volleyball sweep on the road, and strong showings from our golf teams on the course ⛳

it was a big night for Bureau Valley Athletics!
