🔬 Science comes to life in our high school labs! 🧪 Our students have been learning science by doing science! 🚗 Physical Science: Students explored objects in motion and reference points, learning how we describe an object's position and determine whether something is moving by comparing it to a reference point. 🌱 Biology: Students took a closer look at food chains and the 10% rule, discovering how energy moves from one level of an ecosystem to the next. 🐟 Environmental Science: Who knew goldfish crackers could teach us about resource management? Students used spoons and forks to “catch” their resources, demonstrating how regulations can help protect resources and promote wise, sustainable use. Sometimes the best lessons are the ones you can snack on afterward! These labs are more than experiments, they give students opportunities to model real-world systems, think critically, collaborate, and connect science concepts to everyday life. Science is happening all around us, and our students are getting to connect concepts from the classroom to real-world situations!🔬🌎✨

Supporting text states, “As shared on the first day: Clothing must provide coverage from armpit to armpit and extend down to the middle of the thigh.” A gold banner reads, “Belly buttons aren’t an accessory.” The bottom banner reads, “The Wildcat Way: Be respectful. Be responsible. Be ready.”
