It was race day for some lucky students at Lima's Unity Elementary School. The "Spartan 360" program wrapping up their mentoring program with a pine derby race. "Spartan 360" places high school students with the younger kids to help them with their school work, along with building social and emotional skills. The bigs and littles worked together in making the derby cars from a block of wood to get ready to race.

Engaging a student's natural curiosity to design a solution to a problem was the goal at Lima's Unity Elementary School on Tuesday. The problem was getting an egg from point-A to point-B without breaking it. The solution? Creating a vehicle to keep it safe. Mrs. Kaufman's 4th-grade class has been designing and building these contraptions to safely transport their eggs down a ramp.
