The Thoreau High School Discovery Center has been buzzing with excitement as students explored our fascinating Spider Exhibit! Throughout the exhibit, students learned about a variety of spider species, their unique behaviors, habitats, and the important role they play in our ecosystems.
From colorful jumping spiders to impressive tarantulas, students had the opportunity to discover that these eight-legged creatures are far more interesting than they are scary!
The Spider Exhibit will remain open through Friday.

Dear Thoreau High School Families,
Today, Thoreau High School received a report of a firearm on campus that was determined to be false. The report was taken seriously and immediately referred to law enforcement.
As a precaution, Thoreau High School was placed in a HOLD while the matter was investigated. Law enforcement is taking the false report seriously.
All students and staff are safe, and our campus is secure.
Families, we encourage you to speak with your children about the seriousness of making false reports and the importance of reporting legitimate safety concerns to a trusted adult or school administrator.
The safety and well-being of our students and staff remain our highest priority.
Thank you for your understanding and continued support.
