D. R. Hill Middle School

Mrs. Taylor’s 8th grade Geometry students created Trigonometry Flipbooks to help them learn and remember SOHCAHTOA. 📐 Along with a catchy song, this hands-on study tool breaks down sine, cosine, and tangent to help with the rest of our Trigonometry unit. Great work, tigers!

D.R. Hill wants to highlight our amazing Teachers! For Teacher Appreciation this month, we celebrate: - Ms. Allen - Ms. Parlier - Ms. Cannon - Ms. Leonard - Dr. Schoch - Mr. Poteat - Ms. Cotterman - Ms. Steighner - Ms. Lyda and our Presidential Award Recipient, Ms. Armstrong! We love our teachers, because our teachers love The Hill!

Mrs. Howard’s World Civilizations classes wrapped up their unit on the Industrial Revolution and Imperialism with a delicious "assembly line" experience. After studying production methods from the early 1900s to our local BMW plant, students celebrated early Pi Day (March 14th) with some Moon Pies!

Fun Fact: Moon Pies were created in 1917—the same year the U.S. entered WWI. It’s a perfect transition as these students gear up to start their WWI unit next week! 🎖️

Student Scientists in Mrs. Bowles class practiced academic conversation skills and analyzed evidence to determine the type of symbiotic relationship between desert organisms. Students collaborated and showed great teamwork in helping each other accomplish the task.

Huge congratulations to all of the DR Hill Middle School Band students who represented us in the SCBDA Region 6 Honor Band and the SC All-State Orchestra this weekend!

Members of D.R. Hill's Beta Club and Fellowship of Christian Students are proud to partner with First Baptist Lyman on a service project to deliver basic medical supplies and medical care to Sri Lanka. Please bring any supplies on this list to Nurse Massey or Mrs. Howard between now and the end of the school year. All supplies will be flown over to Sri Lanka in June, via a retired D5 nurse. It's so wonderful to see our community come together to help others!
