The Chemistry classes at RCHS are finishing up the last weeks of class with some awesome lab experiences. Students completed a chemical reactions lab and got to ignite Magnesium ribbon to predict the balanced chemical equation, practiced their Stoichiometry skills with some Tabletop Review and learning how to make any drink carbonated, and finished up the week with Gas Laws Lab. Eggs in a Bottle was a gross favorite that had everybody laughing!

During the demonstration, former Driver's Education instructor Mrs. VanDyke gave students a play-by-play over a microphone discussing an array of things such as the drivers' and passengers' conditions, who was arriving on scene, graduated driver's licenses, and more. Thank you to Olney Police Department, Richland County Sheriff's Department, Illinois State Police, Sue Travous and the Carle RMH Ambulance Service, Carle Life Flight, Olney Fire Department, Kistler-Patterson Funeral Homes, Austin Woods and Woods Autobody, Jon Wright, SRO Ameter, Mrs. VanDyke, and of course our volunteers — students Gavyn Cothern, Ryan Kirby, Carsyn Ameter and RCHS graduate Jorri VanDyke.

Olney Tiger Boys & Girls Track had a great showing at the LIC Conference Meet in Newton on Wednesday, May 1. Tiger Track came away as the conference champs while Lady Tiger Track finished third. Wins and PRs were accomplished by both teams. In addition to practice, teamwork like this comes from camaraderie. Prior to the meet, both track teams enjoyed a luncheon put on by the coaches and generous parents. This is the One Tiger Nation culture! Congratulations athletes and best wishes at sectionals!
