Pumpkin Jack

We have a new visitor in the Media Center, our very own Pumpkin Jack!
Students and staff can enjoy him for Halloween, watch him decompose this winter and hopefully we'll have sprouts in the spring. Then, we can transplant the sprouts outside and carve his offspring next fall. Join us as we watch the life cycle of a pumpkin.

			On March 31, Pumpkin Jack spent a few hours outdoors getting some fresh air. Then, a couple inches of soil was added.  Hopefully the seeds will sprout soon!
