5TH grade discovers Lafayette's Criminology System

5th graders recently got the opportunity to visit the Criminology Dept. in Lafayette, Al.  We were able to hear about many exciting things that go on in the crime world and got to ask MANY questions to Detective Rollins.

Then Major Farris took us to a tour of the Jail where we learned a lot and again asked many questions!


Last, we stopped by the public library and with our newly acquired skills on criminology, we helped solve the crime of the missing lunch.




4th grade Georgia Aquarium Adventures


What an adventure we had at Atlanta's Georgia Aquarium!!! It houses more than 100,000 animals, representing 500 species, all of which reside in 10 million US gallons of marine and fresh water, and was the world's largest aquarium when it opened in 2005.  We also got to experience the 4D Undersea Water show, The Dolphin Tales show, and a special "behind the scenes" tour of the aquarium. We had a blast!!


Our whole Chambers County Gifted 4th grade group who attended:)

Here's our group from Five Points and Eastside ;)



The kids were amazed at this WHITE alligator!
