Mr. Staub's statistics class was launching gummi bears today! Students recorded the distance the candy traveled vs. the height that it was launched from. Their goal was to come up with a regression line equation to predict the distance launched at different heights.
Get those smiles ready!

During the 2020-21 school year our Mini-THON students worked hard to raise $7,642.72 to help conquer childhood cancer. The Four Diamonds staff will use the donation to purchase essential research equipment, conduct clinical trials leading to new treatments, amongst many other ways to give hope to patients and their families. In total last year, 161 schools were able to raise over 2 million dollars for this incredible mission. Thank you to our Mini-THON members for working so hard for a great cause and also to our community for your generosity! FTK!

Dear Parents, Staff, and Students,
During the 2020-2021 school year LASD implemented the FID - Flexible Instructional Days to replace snow/emergency make up days in the calendar. The first year of the FID days was certainly challenging when you add COVID to the mix. During the end of the 2020-2021 school year, we surveyed the families to evaluate FID days. Overwhelmingly, 85% of the responses were very satisfied with FID days as implemented.
The one common request recommended a modified day and a common schedule between all buildings. We were able to take the feedback and adjust the FID day. All students will live stream from 9:00 am to 1:00 pm and follow the schedule provided by the school buildings. As a reminder to be in attendance for the day, you must participate in live stream classes and submit the required assignments. All staff will be available during their regular work hours of 8:00 am - 3:30 pm for Elementary and 7:15 am - 2:45 pm for secondary should you or your children need anything.
For more information on Flexible Instruction Days (FID), please go to our website at https://littlestownasdpa.sites.thrillshare.com/page/district-calendar
We hope this modification allows families some good old fashion snow day fun while still maintaining learning and keeping everyone safe.
Good Luck to the Boys Soccer team in the PIAA District III First Round Soccer Championships today! They will play at Oley Valley High School at 6:30 PM.
