This past Saturday, Ridgeview High School tuba players, along with Mr. Colón, participated in Jacksonville TubaChristmas at the Seawalk Pavilion. With more than 150 tuba players of all ages coming together, the event was a festive and powerful celebration of music that helped ring in the holiday season. We are thankful to Mr. Colón for providing meaningful performance opportunities and for his continued support of our band students.

Ms. Brown’s 12th-grade ELA students spent the day, actually closer to two and a half days, engaged in a Christmas-themed escape room designed to review and reinforce essential Language Arts skills at a high level. This was not just a fun activity; it required close reading, careful analysis, and strong attention to detail throughout each challenge. Students used ’Twas the Night Before Christmas to analyze and sequence plot events, identified and corrected misused homophones in a Christmas Around the World fact sheet, and demonstrated their understanding of grammar by identifying parts of speech in a holiday fun-fact passage. They also applied higher-level thinking as they matched figurative language examples to familiar Christmas phrases, explaining how meaning is created through language choices. #PanthersRISE

Ms. Sigona’s world history students dove into a powerful comparison of the American and French Revolutions. They began by using a Venn diagram to map out the causes, significant events, and outcomes of each revolution, while also identifying the key similarities between the two. From there, they tackled higher-level questions that pushed them beyond basic facts and into deeper analysis and reasoning. The activity helped students explore not just what happened, but why these revolutions unfolded differently and how both helped shape the modern world. #PanthersRISE

Ms. Yancey’s Biology/World History students brought their learning to life through a hands-on mummification lab that connects both subjects. In Biology, students designed and documented their own mummification experiments, and in World History, they recently studied Ancient Egypt, where mummification was a key cultural practice. On Day 10 of the experiment, students collected data to see if the process was working, and it was! The hot dog “mummy” had already lost mass, length, and circumference, and was returned to its sarcophagus to continue drying for another week. #PanthersRISE

Mr. Ley’s students kicked off class with a meaningful bellringer focused on how they can "light up the world with kindness." Each student added their idea to a lightbulb, and together they created a hallway display that serves as a daily reminder of the power of positive actions. We love seeing character and creativity shine at Ridgeview! #PanthersRISE

Mr. Decubellis’s World History students have been hard at work creating their own governments while exploring how civilizations have structured power and authority. From defining the purpose of government and source of power to outlining citizens’ rights, economic systems, and responding to a crisis, students are applying real-world reasoning to historical concepts. This project also sets the stage for their upcoming Enlightenment Government Creation, where they will connect the ideas of Locke, Hobbes, and Montesquieu to the governments they design—an excellent example of critical thinking and authentic learning! #PanthersRISE
