Ms. Yancey’s Physical Science students are exploring the properties of matter, including concepts like mass, volume, and density, calculated by dividing mass by volume. When a classmate returned after being out, his peers took the lead in teaching him the lesson. The experience gave everyone a chance to review, explain, and reinforce their own understanding in the process. #PanthersRISE

In Ms. Fortner’s Honors and Pre-IB/AICE Chemistry classes, students brought science to life through a flame test lab using Bunsen burners and various metal solutions. When heated, the electrons in each metal moved from their ground state to an excited state, then released energy in the form of vibrant light as they returned to ground state. Each colorful flame revealed a unique spectral signature for the metal ion tested, allowing students to connect abstract atomic theory to real-world observation. #PanthersRISE

Mr. King’s Career Prep students recently got into the fall spirit by learning how to carve pumpkins with guidance from Mr. King and the instructional assistants.

Ms. Generazio’s Art 1 students took their Spooky Drawing projects to the next level through a carousel critique designed to strengthen artistic vocabulary and peer feedback skills. Each student received a card labeled Best Technique, Most Creative, Favorite Work, or Most Expressive and rotated around the room, leaving thoughtful comments focused on value, shading, and line work. During the class debrief, the students with the most feedback shared the comments they received from their peers. Together, the class discussed what made feedback specific, detailed, and connected to artistic concepts.
Through this process, students not only refined their techniques; they learned to observe, articulate, and appreciate the creative process in one another’s work. #PanthersRISE

Our Little Paws preschoolers had an unforgettable visit from Ms. Susan Hendry, the Pumpkin Lady! Each child got to pick out their very own pumpkin and enjoy a hands-on learning experience, where they met chickens brought by Ms. Hendry. This fun and interactive visit combined fall excitement with real-world learning—helping our littles explore nature, animals, and the joy of discovery.
Thank you, Ms. Hendry, for bringing such an exceptional experience to our students! #PanthersRISE

Ms. Wilson’s Theatre 1 students completed their first cumulative project last week, and what a show it was! After learning about the areas of the stage and how to create strong blocking, students put their skills to the test through a lip sync performance. Each group chose a song made before 2005 and brought it to life for their classmates with creativity, energy, and confidence.

Health Science Foundations juniors recently brought classroom learning to life by conducting school health screenings at Lakeside Elementary. After studying essential skills such as measuring vision, hearing, height, and weight—and exploring key professional characteristics of healthcare workers—students applied their clinical training to perform basic screenings. This hands-on experience created a valuable connection between theoretical knowledge and real-world clinical practice, helping prepare our future healthcare professionals for their careers. #PanthersRISE
