Redmen Review

Freshmen students in Mrs. Fisher and Mr. Karst's PE classes took advantage of the unusually warm weather in February to take their physical activity outside. Students got their heart rates up and did some laps while enjoying the fresh air and sunshine.

Upperclassmen in Ms. Prendergast's and Ms. Eclevia's English classes spent the week with B.J. Buckley, a poet, writer, and artist-in-residence. Ms. Buckley spent the week sharing her work with students, as well as helping guide them through the process of writing creatively. Below are samples of some of the students' work, selected and shared by their teachers.

Stay caught up with your homework and grades by participating in Homework Help every Thursday in the SHS library from 3:20-5:00 pm. Come for a quiet space to work and extra support from teachers.

Homework Help will be held both Tuesday, March 4th and Thursday, March 6th in preparation for the end of the third quarter.

Students in Ag classes have been busy again this week. Pictured at left are students in Animal Science class burning feed samples to calculate the energy animals get from different feedstuffs.

Pictured below are students in Ag Metals and Ag Mechanics classes during their trip to Britton to tour Horton's, a firm that manufactures semi fan clutches. Students got to see some of the tools and practices they have been learning about used in the real world, as well as learn more about careers in precision manufacturing.
