🌍🔐 Escape Room Challenge in World Geography! 🔐🌍 Coach Carter’s 7th Grade World Geography class is putting their critical thinking skills to the test! 🧠✨ This week, students are diving into an interactive “Escape Room” activity while analyzing informational text about illegal poaching in Africa. Working collaboratively, they’re solving clues, interpreting real-world data, and uncovering the impact poaching has on wildlife, ecosystems, and communities. From understanding why animals like elephants and rhinos are targeted to exploring conservation efforts across the continent, our students are becoming informed global citizens—one puzzle at a time! 🐘🦏🌿 We love seeing their teamwork, problem-solving, and engagement come to life in such a meaningful way. Way to go, 7th grade! 👏🌎

To celebrate Black History Month, Mr. Jody’s 7th and 8th grade classes showed off their art skills creating an informative page on a Black Scientist or Inventor.

🌍🧩 6th Grade Science in Action! 🧩🌍 Mrs. Wilder’s science class. Today, our 6th graders explored plate tectonics and continental drift by completing a hands-on Pangaea puzzle. Students worked together to piece the continents back into the ancient supercontinent, discovering how Earth’s landmasses once fit together like a giant jigsaw puzzle!

Our 7th grade Math 180 students put probability to the test today! 🪙 They explored theoretical vs. experimental probability by flipping coins, collecting data, and comparing their results to the expected 50/50 outcome. Hands-on math = deeper understanding! 📈✨
