Two bacteria walk into a bar, the bartender says, "We don't serve bacteria here."

The bacteria reply, "Its alright, we work here, were staph!"

 

And work it did! Thank you to the anonymous donor who generously helped a class buy some sorely needed books.  I know I said I would cut out the jokes if you donated. But I still have a few more in me! So this time I want to focus on a specific project. Mrs. A's class in Pawtucket, RI really needs your help! They've been trying to win the Rhode Island Science Olympiad for four years, but the students have no material to prepare for it. They are asking for several study aids and science projects to get students up to speed. Rhode Island in general has very poor funding for its schools. In one school I know of, science teachers get a budget of $1.71 per student per year for all of their educational needs! So let's help Mrs. A's class win the science olympics this year! Participating in a science olympics is a great way to get students excited about science and about learning... so let's encourage these future scientists!

To visit my giving page and see Mrs. A's class and other project follow this link.
