One day in early December, Ephrata High School math teacher Kris Miller took a rather peculiar approach in class.
He had his students read an article from a recent edition of Scholastic News. âCould You Clone Your Pet?â the headline read.
Miller then went around the room and asked students to share their petsâ names and decide whether theyâd consider cloning them. After all, who doesnât want their pet to live forever?
âCharice? No,â Miller said, uncharacteristically fumbling on the studentâs name.
âCharis,â the student said, correcting him.
âCharis. Darn it,â Miller said.
âI used to have, um, three cats, but now I only have two because one of them died,â Charis said.
We appreciate LNP | LancasterOnline’s recent editorial (“Children first,” Feb. 5) calling on state lawmakers to “fairly, equitably and adequately fund education.”
Wheatland Middle School will immediately move to a virtual format through Wednesday, Feb. 17 due to a shortage of staff, the School District of Lancaster announced on Wednesday.
