Many are speculating that the top bridge was so durable because they incorporated wood glue during the last days of construction. We will test this theory with the 2nd and 3rd grade students during our next cycle. UPCOMING EVENTS AT INDEPENDENCECST May 8 to May 25, 2012 We have moved back our testing schedule one week. The 2nd through 5th grade students will show what they have learned on our California Standards Test beginning on the 8th. (The third week is used for make-ups.) Please make sure your children get plenty of rest and eat breakfast every morning. Also, ask them about the test taking strategies they will use. Good luck everyone!!
