We experimented today in third grade to see what happened if we boiled salt water. The students predicted that the water would evaporate and salt would be left!


After 3 innings the Lady Cougars trail Monroe City 5-0 in district semifinal action!! GO COUGARS!!

UPDATE: Yesterday, the Lewis County Health Dept. did approve to allow all Lewis County Schools to utilize a more flexible quarantine protocol with respect to COVID-19; however, upon careful consideration of State Health Dept. Regulations and the recommendation of the district's legal counsel, liability insurance provider, and DESE, the LCC1 Board of Education did not take any action to adopt this policy change. Therefore, the district will continue to operate under the current CDC and State recommended guidelines for COVID-19 Quarantine protocols.

The Highland Baseball Team is selling hats this year for $25 each. Please see the short video for information.
