High School Service Learning Program

Parkland Community College offered a Career Exploration Day in the field of Industrial Maintenance, HVAC, and Electrical. Students were able to work with sheet metal and PVC pipe, work with an industrial machine, and learn how to wire an outlet.

Art Studio & Art Club took a field trip to the Krannert Art Museum & Spurlock Museum.

They viewed the Ceramics & Contemporary Art exhibits at Krannert. They played a fun game, renaming the artwork using an Apples to Apples card game. They also viewed the new exhibit, Unfinished Revolutions: Living Stories of American Rights, at Spurlock

6th grade stem students studied thermal energy this week. The students created insulated cups to keep water cold and also were given cups of plain water. Their goal was to create the biggest difference in temperature between to insulated and uninsulated cups in 20 minutes. Students creatively found shade, black surfaces, and heated rocks to master the challenge. One team kept their water cold, with the water increasing 1 degree C. Another team achieved an 11 degree C (20F) difference in cup temperatures between the insulated and uninsulated.
What a clever group of scientists!

Studio Art classes started their year by creating a collaborative sculpture with the concept of the United States turning 250 this year. Students picked their winner for Best of Show and 3rd & 4th hour winners. Congrats to Jerrica, Hazel, and Zach for winning Best of Show!

Due to the amount of rain this morning, tonight’s CGB football scrimmage will be held on the practice field.

Parents and spectators are encouraged to bring lawn chairs for seating around the practice field. All sports team introductions will still take place on the football field, with bleacher seating available.

Following the team introductions, the football team will move to the practice field for the scrimmage.

We look forward to seeing everyone tonight!
