Biology and Environmental made algae cultures.
Using a Secchi disk, they were able to calculate the concentrations in mg/L.
They then examined those cultures under the microscope.

The Joseph City Strength and Performance Classes recently completed their Phase 1 Testing. The leaderboards have been updated to include as many historical records as possible. Leaderboards will automatically update moving forward. The athletes are excited to see their progress tracked and to see where they stack up. These leaderboards are great for motivation. However, we work hard to remind the athletes that the numbers only matter as they track our progress and enhance our well-being and preparedness to perform.

Part of the tradition of our strength and performance program is students taking ownership of the weight room, from assembling the equipment when it arrived two years ago to days like Thursday, when the students deep-cleaned every plate, dumbbell, and other piece of equipment. I am proud of the way the students take pride in and show stewardship of the room and equipment.
Last week kindergarten wrapped up our plant unit at the pumpkin patch. We took our time and made sure to find good pumpkins!

Jr. High Volleyball is officially underway! These girls are working hard and are going to be so much fun to watch. Come out and show your support!
Art students spent time exploring the work of artist Wassily Kandinsky and his use of Color, shape and emotion.
After studying his famous "squares with concentric circles", students collaborated to create their own colorful interpretations, experimenting with color combinations, learning and seeing how individual artworks can come together to create one vibrant, collaborative piece!
Photography students are exploring light painting using slow shutter speeds to capture the movement of light! By keeping the shutter open longer, students can create glowing trails, ghost effects, patterns, and artistic effects that aren’t visible in a standard photograph. They’re learning how shutter speed impacts an image while experimenting with light, movement, and creativity to create unique photographs.
Biology and Environmental Science have been following the Algae Academy Curriculum and learning about all of the many uses of Algae.
The Algae Academy has been opening the eyes of students and Mrs. Bushman to the possibilities of algae farming in the Arizona desert and to the fact that algae can be a great source of nutrition.
Did you know that many food products, particularly dairy products, have algae in them?
Students are culturing the algae and can see different types of algae under the microscope --> they do not look as one would expect.

Joseph City families, community and staff,
We're asking for 10 minutes of your time to tell us how things are really going at Joseph City Schools.
This is our first district survey of the year, and your answers will shape what we work on next. We want to know what's going well and what isn't: whether your child feels safe and cared for, whether they're learning and challenged at the right level, how much homework they're getting, and what you'd change if it were up to you.
Please be honest. The feedback that helps us most is the kind that's hard to hear. If something isn't working, we'd rather know now so we can fix it. The good stuff matters too, because it tells us what to protect.
A few things to know:
• One survey per family, even if you have kids at both schools. The survey will ask about each school separately.
• Community members and staff, we want your voice too. Choose the option that describes you at the start.
• It takes about 10 minutes and works on a phone.
Take the survey here: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/1LKIwvIHj3UJXm4vKSEoWSQ8hjed9yPXlAQXzorLO8Os/viewform
Thank you for helping us make Joseph City a better place for every student. Go Wildcats!

Art students have been exploring color theory through watercolor fruits!
Students are learning how using only two complementary colors can create contrast, depth, and realistic shadows through layering, blending the colors, students are learning how to use color to bring their images to life!
