On May 22nd, the Belleville Wildcats played at Watertown Luther Prep, losing 5-6.
“Luther Prep started the game with their first hitter reaching on an error, then stealing 2nd. The second batter bunted that runner to 3rd. Following batter walked, then stole 2nd for runners at 3rd and 2nd. A hit back to Cassidy Heller kept the run from scoring, and got us the second out, but an error on the next batter allowed the run to score,” said Coach Connie Wunschel.
At the bottom of the fourth inning, Luther Prep was ahead, 5-0.

This school year the School District of Belleville’s elementary students have been introduced to Project Lead the Way, a nonprofit STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math) curriculum.  Kindergarten through fifth grade students have learned about computer science and biomedical science through carefully structured real-world, hands-on activities, projects and problems.  They are learning to be creative, critical thinking problem solvers.  Students communicate and collaborate together as they are encouraged to continuously discover, explore and adopt a design-thinking mindset.

Less than a decade ago, Greek-style yogurt was nowhere to be found on the supermarket shelves of America. But with the seemingly overnight success of Chobani, as well as the explosion of copycats hoping to cash in on the trend, Greek yogurt has become the country’s top seller. Now, a start-up in Wisconsin believes that lovers of the popular dairy product are ready to embrace a completely new style of yogurt.
