Discover What Owls Eat! 🦉 Fifth Graders at Heritage Hill became nature detectives! When owls eat their food, they can’t digest everything—like bones and fur—so they spit out little bundles called owl pellets. During our owl pellet dissection, students gently took apart a real pellet to see what the owl had for dinner. They found tiny skulls, bones, and other cool clues that helped them learn about food chains and animal habitats. It was a fun, hands-on science adventure! #VikesLeadTheWay #AAGV

Students in Mrs. Buchanans class had fun delivering a special treat to different classrooms at Heritage Hill on Friday! The students made Magic Potion Punch together, then spent time serving it to adults throughout the school! #VikesLeadTheWay #AAGV
