Are we shelf safe? The biology class checks the growth of swabbed juices, both UHT (Ultra-high Temperature) shelf-safe and fresh fruits, to see how many colonies have grown. How many can you count?

🎭 Master Storytellers in Action! ✨
Our Creative Writing students traded the classroom for a day of professional inspiration at the Storytelling Festival Workshops at the Regional Engagement Center! 📝🔥
Mrs. Bernardo and three of our Knights—Heath, Josie, and Mason—dived into masterclasses led by two of the industry’s most renowned voices:
➡️ Lyn Ford (Ohio) 🌰: A fourth-generation storyteller, "Affrilachian" teaching artist, and recipient of the National Storytelling Network’s Circle of Excellence Award. She shared her centuries-old traditions, teaching the group that empathetic communication is truly the "heart of storytelling".
➡️ Paul Strickland (Kentucky) 🐎: An 18-time "Best of Fest" winner and professional theatre artist. Paul demonstrated how to use "curiosity questions" to hook an audience and transform "I don’t know" into a doorway for creativity.
The group took a midday break to refuel with a fantastic sushi and hibachi lunch 🍣🍱—the perfect opportunity to workshop ideas and prep for the afternoon session!
A huge shout out to Mr. Moody for getting the group there safely 🚐💨, and a sincere thank you to our school leadership for supporting this unique opportunity! Can’t wait to see these world-class techniques come to life in our students' writing. ✍️🌟
