Mrs. Loftin with Robinson Ranch visited our 7th Grade Science students and Health and Wellness classes to share about sustainable farming and the importance of healthy eating. As well as the role of chickens and cows and how local farms help provide healthy food for our community. The presentation gave students a hands-on connection between agriculture, nutrition, and environmental responsibility. 🌱
Last week in 7-4 Science, students presented their Endangered Species Projects! 🐼🦋🌎
Throughout the week, students researched a wide variety of endangered species ranging from the monarch butterfly to the giant panda. One student even chose to research the smallpox virus! This was an open-ended project that allowed students to creatively share their learning in a way that matched their interests and strengths.
Students created posters, Canva presentations, 3D printed species, dioramas, trifold boards, children’s books, websites, and even clay figurines. On Friday, they proudly shared their projects with the class, and it was amazing to see their creativity, hard work, and passion for learning on display. We are so proud of our middle school scientists! 💚🔬

Our 8th grade AVID students were able to tour TU yesterday. Experiences like this help our students see that college is not just a dream—it’s a plan. 💙📚
What a magical night! Thank you JMS PTAG for hosting such a fun dance for our 8th graders!
Students in Mrs. Eliwa’s math class on Team 8-2 participated in an engaging, hands-on lesson to explore the concepts of surface area and volume. Using everyday objects and geometric models, students practiced measuring dimensions and calculating both the space inside three-dimensional shapes and the area covering their surfaces. As the activity progressed, students were able to clearly see how different shapes and sizes affect these measurements. This interactive experience helped students better understand how surface area and volume are used in real life. From determining how much paint is needed to cover a surface to figuring out how much a container can hold, students saw how these math skills apply to everyday situations. This practical approach made learning meaningful and showed students how important these concepts are beyond the classroom.
April is Kite Month, and what better way to celebrate than by taking learning to the skies! 🪁
Students in Mrs. Lee, Mrs. Heinen, and Mrs. Mulalira’s classes have been exploring the history and science behind kites. On this perfectly breezy Friday morning, they stepped outside to put their knowledge into action, watching their kites soar and bringing science to life.
Learning + fresh air = a pretty great way to start the day!
