Mrs. Nicholas, Coach Wisehart, & Ms. Westafer had their Biology students solve a "murder mystery" by testing the stomach contents of the victim to determine what they ate on the day of the crime. Students tested for biomolecules, to determine if they had carbohydrates, lipids, proteins, and nucleic acids in the samples, and were able to successfully solve the case.
Ms. Westafer’s Biology class is discovering how population size can be limited by resources like food. They were black bears foraging for food in the ecosystem. We even had an injured bear hopping and a “mama” bear with cubs to feed!
Ms. Westafer’s Environmental class is continuing their investigation into their plant growth lab testing different variables such as types of light or types of liquids to water their plants. They are also learning about the composting process and why decomposition is important for our ecosystem.

Dr. Allldred's students practice using a scalpel and using their medical terminology while completing a pickle autopsy. Students discovered bullets, babies, parasites and tumors in their pickles!
Coach Howell’s Honors Chemistry class worked to discover the identity of unknown metal objects, wooden cubes, and different liquids by finding the density of each one and comparing.
Ms. Westafer’s class is putting their skills into planning and executing a lab. They picked what variable they wanted to test, the plant to use, and how to write up a real lab! They will grow the plants throughout the semester and see what happens.
