The business management class is focusing on a different entrepreneur every week. This week it is Henry Ford and his impact on not only the automobile industry, but the invention of the assembly line, allowing mass production in most industries. Increased production created lower prices which created increased demand. He also provided higher wages to attract workers from other industries, even though they switched to a job that was quite monotonous.
Jerry and Charlsye Miller brought their 1971 Ford truck over so we could look at the differences from then to now. Thank you!

It was the first day of school.
“Get up, Toad!” said Frog. “There are auditions for the school musical!”
Toad hid under the covers.
“I cannot sing. I sound like a hiccup in a rain boot.”
“That’s perfect,” said Frog. “They need all kinds of voices.”
After lunch, Toad crept into the music room. He sang a small, shaky song.
When he finished, the teacher smiled.
“Toad, you’re perfect for the Turtle Bard.”
That night, Toad whispered,
“Frog, today was the best first day ever.”
“You sang,” said Frog. “And you were you.”
Toad smiled. “Rubber boot and all.”
AUDITIONS FOR A YEAR WITH FROG AND TOAD August 18 3-430/ August 19 6-8PM. Bennett Auditorium!

Finger Prints are unique to every individual. Even Identical Twins have different finger prints. Fingerprints begin to form when in the womb between 17 and 19 weeks gestation. The arches, tentarches, whorls, and loops are influenced by the friction that occurs in the womb from tissues and amniotic fluid. If it is hard to see your fingerprint patterns, finger print a white balloon and slightly inflate it.
Only a few days left in this contest. Please show your support.

Did you know that there is Bismuth in Pepto Bismol? Today, the Chemistry class extracted Bismuth from Pepto Bismol. This is a 2 class process due the filtering. The experiment was determining which ratio of Hydrochloric Acid to water worked the best. This years Chemistry students are lab independent and was able to handle this lab all on their own. (The gray / silver in the evaporating dish is the Bismuth)
The ultimate goal in science is for students to explore and learn on their own; the A&P students had the opportunity today to dissect fetal pigs and cows today. They had previous experience of dissecting rats from Biology class, but they were guided each step of the way. These A&P students were given their specimen and then told to go ahead and dissect on their own and explore what they want to explore - some decided to have partners and some decided to be on their own. These ladies did this with a great level of maturity and pure desire to learn - couldn't be more proud.
Come out next week and support the middle school performing arts class and high school drama class in two fun family friendly productions!
Basketball Bonanza for grades Kindergarten -3rd grade.
While pictures are great - dissecting helps students understand their body by looking at another mammal.

When Earth and Space science is learning about space, they see all sorts of cool colors in the images that both Hubble and James Webb has sent back to Earth. This is the best time to learn about how the eye works. They had the opportunity to dissect cow eyeball balls to see different parts and discuss similarities and differences of cow eyes and human eyes.
