A schoolyard archaeology site was excavated this week to demonstrate how important observation and documentation is to gather information about the past. Students learned that excavating a site is destructive and tedious work that requires careful documentation.

Teaka (our school therapy dog) and Lori (staff) just finished a 3 day AKC agility trial in Proctor. It was well attended by a bunch of great competitors. Teaka, our 8.9 year old golden, had a stellar weekend. She had a perfect 3 days with 11/11 Qs (qualifying runs) while finishing her Time to Beat title and acquiring 3 double Qs. She had several first and second placements as well. It's not always being the fastest team out there isn't but sometimes steady with accuracy wins the race.
