Students have been exploring the Revolutionary War by studying major battles and making strategic decisions as members of the Continental Army. Before the unit began, each student selected a role. They compared their decisions to what truly happened in the historical battles.






Students in Mrs. Patrick’s science class used a microscope to examine different types of cells.





Anyone struggle to understand the slang these young whippersnappers use today? Slang can cause miscommunication regardless of age so students in Career Exploration explained some current slang words and phrases and how each could cause a misunderstanding at school or work.

7th grade Art students are getting close to finishing their Clay Junk Food project!




Students had plate races for test review!



7th graders wrapped up their probability unit by tackling leveled questions to earn team squares on our Grid of Glory board! Each correct answer increased their team’s chances of having their square selected by a random spinner at the end for a prize!



How amazing are these students!?!?!?! They wanted to surprise Mrs. Dotson and let her know they are thinking about her as she faces what is hopefully the last leg of this battle. You got this Mrs. Dotson!💕❤️

Everyone loves candy for Valentine's Day so 6th graders in Career Exploration had to use their creative thinking skills to figure out what candy bars were being described in interesting ways.




Ms. Valentine’s 7th graders used candy conversation hearts to model and compare theoretical and experimental probability. Students identified the sample space, conducted repeated trials, and calculated complementary probabilities to determine the likelihood of events. 💘🍬










In Mrs. Starline's language arts class, students took a deep dive into two utopian poems, working to determine each poem’s theme and analyze how that theme develops throughout the text. They looked closely at word choice, imagery, and structure to see how the authors build their message over time. From there, students made thoughtful connections between the poems and the novel Among the Hidden," comparing ideas about society, freedom, equality, and what makes a “perfect” world.

Students have been learning about the road leading to the Declaration of Independence by studying how the King of England treated the colonists and the events that pushed them toward rebellion. To demonstrate their understanding, the students (acting as the colonists) are creating breakup text messages to Britain and using Book Creator to present and explain their reasoning.
