May 17, 2022 Budget Vote and Annual Election 7:00 am - 10:00 pm https://www.lawrence.org/page/budget-vote-election-information

Ms. Mendez took the LHS Statistics classes to participate in a field trip to Just Escape in Massapequa, NY. The students tried to escape locked rooms by working together to solve puzzles using logic and problem solving. After compiling their escape times they will perform a statistical analysis by calculating the probability of their own escape times relative to the population mean and standard deviation of mean escape times at this venue in the last year. The Stats students wore Red Noses to bring awareness about child poverty in the US for Rednoseday.org. Special thanks to Ms. Lev on accompanying 50 students on this fun filled day of exploratory statistical analysis!

Thank you to Brad Slepian (Assistant Principal Nassau BOCES Adult Education) for presenting to our students today on the wonderful trade programs that are offered at Nassau BOCES.
