7th Grade Science

The seventh grade life science classes celebrated spring with a field trip to Spring Creek Park on Thursday.  The students enjoyed a hot dog picnic lunch coordinated by their parents, and then explored the park.  To conclude their study of the environment, the students were divided into small groups, and sent out with single-use cameras to document organisms representative of different biomes.  The remaining pictures on each camera were to be used to document the “animal life” in the park, namely the activities of fellow students!  Be sure to look in the hallway next week for picture displays of our field study.

Texas Tour  

This week our 8th graders went on their annual Texas tour trip.  They visited the Capitol in Austin, the Bob Bullock Museum, Mo Ranch, The Alamo, The Haunted House Museum and Dell Diamond to watch the Round RoOck Express(minor league baseball team).  What a great Trip for our students. Thanks Mrs. Arrant for organizing it.

Pinnacle (Spiritual Emphasis Retreat)

The high school students went on their annual spiritual emphasis retreat this week to Carolina Creek, outside of Huntsville.  Youth Pastor Sonny Howard of Terra Verde Community Church was the Speaker and Toni Ruffino of Calvary Community Church led praise and worship.  This week the students focused on Isaiah 6:1-8. They also managed to sneak in some fun and relaxation before coming back to finals.Thanks to Mrs. Pearce and the upper school staff for their dedication to our students.
