Elmwood Community Schools

It was a big day for Elmwood/Brimfield Track. Aiden Faulkner was the honorary Athlete for the IHSA State Track meet and led off the day with a speech during the opening ceremony. The 4x800 relay team of Hason Hubbard, Cole Cahill, Kam Stevenson, and Darwin Herman earned All-State Medals with their 7th place finish. Darwin came back and ran an impressive 1:53 in the 800 earning him a 3rd place finish and a second All-State Medal. Aiden finished off the day with a great 1600. He finished 6th with a 4:26 and earned an All-State Medal, too. More importantly all of our state athletes represented our schools and communities extremely well throughout the long weekend.

Congratulations to the B/E baseball team for winning regionals. Good luck at sectionals!

Congrats to B/E softball on their sectional championship win, 8-1. Come out to Eastside on Monday at 4:30 and cheer these girls onward in the state finals.

It's final exam time. Physical science students are presenting their findings of the effect of distance from a light source on photovoltaic (solar) output (volts, amps, watts).

This is an "assessment OF learning." The cool thing is, it is also an "assessment FOR learning." Students have to decide how to present their findings. Do they create a multi-variable graph, or create three different graphs? If they do the multivariable, how will they show scale? If they do three different graphs, how will they compare them when the scales are most likely much different?

This is a final 'exam' in which students are encouraged to ask questions. They are learning and problem-solving while also demonstrating their knowledge.

Calling all robotics enthusiasts!! See the ad below for summer sessions. #TrojanWay
