Students in Mrs. Beaton’s Civics class have been studying the Legislative branch and the process of how a bill becomes a law. They played a game simulating this process and discovered that most bills never make it through the entire process and become laws, and the ones that do make it through have been thoroughly vetted by multiple committees before making it to the President’s desk.

Students in Mrs. Shook's class traveled to learning stations where they built background knowledge in order to fully understand and appreciate the story we were about to read, which was set in the Middle East. They researched conflict in the region, tried hummus, watched a slam poetry session, and made inferences on quality of life for citizens of that area in that time period.

Attention: Please DO NOT drop off students in the DHS Student Parking Lots. We had several close calls this morning due to parents coming in and out. Our first priority is to keep our students safe. We appreciate your cooperation in this matter. You should drop off at the front of DMS or DHS to get your student to school. Thanks so much!

Students in Mrs. Fitz’s Quantitative Literacy class have been learning about income, taxes, and wealth. The students played “The Wealth Game”. They started out with random bags of beads-each color representing a different value. This dictated whether they were poor, middle class, or rich. They then had to facilitate trades with classmates that would benefit their total. They got a bonus if they could get groups of three of the same color. They learned that wealth is determined by luck, natural abilities, effort, and motivation. Sometimes you gain wealth-and sometimes you lose wealth- but you usually do not have total control over it.

Students in Ms. Morgan’s English 12 with Oral Communications classes have spent the beginning of the school year learning all of the procedures necessary to fulfill a research project with source citations in MLA format complete with a slide presentation to present in front of their class. Some of the areas to be researched were location of the school of their choice, distance from home, programs/degrees offered, number of students on campus, student to professor ratio, total cost of enrollment including tuition, fees, books, housing, meal plans, etc., financial aid availability, campus life on and off campus, and determining a source’s credibility for the purpose of collecting information. Meeting the Oral Communications standards for the class, students compiled their data into a slide show and were graded on their speaking and listening skills by voice quality, eye contact, and respectfully paying attention to the speaker at the podium.

Students in Mrs. Snyder's English classes researched different wars or conflicts recently. They had to find out information about the war, the clean up and any survivors. Once that was completed, students made slideshows and presented them to their classmates. This was in reference to a poem that they had just finished called "The End and the Beginning." It was written by a WW2 survivor about the aftermath of war.

Last Thursday, Mrs. Henderson took a group of advanced art students on a field trip to the Arkansas Museum of Fine Arts in Little Rock! For many, this was their very first time visiting an art museum, making it a truly special experience. Students explored the galleries, experiencing art up close while gathering inspiration for their own creative journeys. As part of their assignment, they photographed their favorite works of art and will be creating slideshows to share with their classmates back at school. This trip was an exciting opportunity for our students to connect with art beyond the classroom and spark new ideas for their own projects.

Today, the students in Mrs. Hill's Biology classes made presentations on types of reproductive isolation in species: mechanical, behavioral, and temperal isolation are barriers that prevent differed species from interbreeding and producing hybrid offspring.
The students did a great job on their presentations. Mrs. Hill led great discussions after each student presented.
Biology is the study of life, and the students will continue on their journey to understanding the most simple to the most complex forms of life. Great job guys!
