Red Nose Day is celebrated to bring awareness to famine and poverty. It was started in 1985 by Comic Relief to raise funds for these causes. AVID celebrated this day by reading an article and writing questions to quiz each other, as well as donned rubber noses.
Yesterday , AVID and House Council students teamed up in a unique service project! They helped clean portions of several nearby roadways. A total of 19 students and 3 adults gathered 14 bags of trash and in diing so made the community around us much better. Proud of you guys! #CougarsLEAD

Mrs. Ready’s science class collaborated with Mrs. Mckinney’s RISE students on a “Live Earthworm Lab.” They observed worms’ behavior response to stimuli such as light or moisture and how these adaptive advantages help them survive. No earthworm was harmed during this activity, but students had an unforgettable time learning about them! 🪱🪱🪱
