During lower campus science lab, students studied George Washington Carver and his contributions to farming. They observed early signs of spring and documented them by drawing… just like Carver did!

UNLEASHING CREATIVITY AND PROBLEM-SOLVING SKILLS THROUGH RUBE GOLDBERG MACHINES

Upon gaining knowledge of basic machines, Mrs. Haynes' physics students were tasked with designing and building a Rube Goldberg Machine. A Rube Goldberg machine is a contraption that is intentionally designed to perform simple tasks in overly complicated ways. Building a Rube Goldberg machine is an engaging, challenging, creative, and fun way to explore many different ideas in physics and put all of those ideas together to problem solve!

AP EUROPEAN HISTORY STUDENTS RECREATE SALON

AP European History students participated in an "Enlightenment Salon" to recreate events that took place in the 18th and 19th centuries in Europe. Salons were intellectual and social gatherings that were very popular in France where the elite and scholars would meet to discuss the issues of the time.


Students were each assigned a prominent intellectual, political, or cultural figure of the Enlightenment Era to thoroughly research to gain a deep understanding of the individual and their position on key topics. Once in character, they engaged with one another for their own salon in the classroom for a unique and hands-on way to demonstrate the importance of this era.

EXPLORING THE SKIES: 3rd & 4th GRADE STEM(M) CLASSES VISIT MERIDIAN REGIONAL AIRPORT FOR A LESSON IN FLIGHT DYNAMICS & AIR TRAVEL OPERATIONS

For their Stability & Motion: Science of Flight STEM(M) Class, the 3rd and 4th grades took a virtual field trip to the Meridian Regional Airport. During this educational outing, they gained insights into the various stages of air travel, from arriving at the airport to checking in, passing through TSA security, and boarding a plane. The students grasped the significance of the Transportation Security Administration and met a pilot. Additionally, they delved into the crucial role of Air Traffic Controllers, who oversee the safe movement of aircraft on runways, authorize takeoffs and landings, and ensure that proper runway spacing is maintained at all times.
