Bill Seybold, a wildlife biologist from the Lewiston
office of Idaho Fish and Game, came to Prairie High School last week.
He presented a math lesson to two of Krystal Ellis’ math classes on scoring
deer antlers. He also gave them a brief biology lesson. Did
you know there are five different species of deer in Idaho? These
include white-tail and mule deer, moose, elk and caribou (which live up
on the Idaho/Canada border). Each student had their own set of antlers,
and spent the class period measuring the antlers and calculating the score
according to Boone and Crocket standards. Mr. Seybold also presented
to Ryan Hasselstrom’s careers class about different careers at Idaho Fish
and Game. Photo by Loretta Poxleitner. Click on the photo for a larger

Nutritionist Tiffany Schaeffer came to a 4-H project
meeting for Making the Most of Me. She visited with the girls of the Keuterville
Livestock and Greencreek Active Workers 4-H Clubs. She spoke with the girls
on the food pyramid, healthy eating habits, how you feel about yourself
and how to apply it to your life. It was a time of interaction and learning
from each other. The girls learned how to properly introduce themselves
to others and much more. The meeting ended with fresh fruit to get us through
the rest of our day. Thank you Ms. Schaeffer for encouraging our girls
to live a healthy lifestyle. Photo by Shari Chaffee. Click on the photo
