Outdoor learning area at KMHS
big hit with students and teachers
Flatrock Outdoor Learning Area
was a dream of various classes at
Kings Mountain High School but
Saturday a group of seniors helped
put the finishing touches on a pro-
ject that began three years ago.
Earth Science and Biology stu-
dents of Mark Sivy poured cement
in a natural setting of trees and
benches across from the track be-
hind Kings Mountain High School
and ended the day's work with a
cookout.
The flatrocks are part of the
massive 350 million-year-oid
Cherryville granite rock formation
that underlies the area. This pro-
vides the centerpiece of the newly
completed Flatrock Outdoor
Learning Area.
Sivy said the project began as a
means to access certain natural fea-
tures that could supplement the
teachings of Earth Science and
Biology classes. Last year the
Kings Mountain District School
-Minigrant Foundation awarded a
grant that allowed the purchase of
equipment and materials that have
been used to better develop the
area.

VISITS EAST SCHOOL, - WSOC-TV metcorologist Terry Bennett
recently visited East School. After arriving in Chopper 9, Ms. Bennett
presented a program on severe weather precautions to third, fourth
and fifth graders. She is pictured signing autograph for students Joe
Leach, left, and Joe McDaniel.
The facilities now include one
half mile of trails; a classroom
learning area with bench seating;
access to creeks and rock expo-
sures; and benches along the trails.
Sivy said the area has become a
popular resource for not only
Science teachers but for many oth-
er teachers who wish to instruct in
a different setting.
The construction was mainly
done through the volunteer efforts
of the students who worked on the
project after school and on
Saturdays.
