From the LTMS
Science Department
Attention HUNTERS: Hunting Season is here! 7th grade Science will be studying the circulatory system and we would like to have your deer hearts. Please bag and freeze your deer hearts for our upcoming dissection and deliver all hearts to Mrs. Young or Mr. Armstrong. You don't have to be in 7th grade to do your part. We appreciate help from any grade level parent. We will be accepting any donations until January or the end of hunting season. Please do your part for science!
Good hunting and thank you for your support!
