We pulled off a surprise tonight for the cadets: a steak and baked potato dinner, complete with a root beer float! 🥩🥔🥤

A huge shoutout to the culinary team and staff who pulled this off with precision and heart. Your hard work feeds more than bodies—you feed camaraderie, morale, and motivation.

In Mrs. Welch’s AP Environmental Science class, students conducted an oil spill clean-up lab, testing different methods that mirror those used in real-world spill response. They quickly saw how challenging it is to truly remove oil from a body of water once it’s been spilled.

Mrs. Welch’s AP Environmental Science students wrapped up a Salt Toxicity Lab today, exploring lethal doses in our pollution unit. After planting radish seeds in varying salinities, they checked germination rates and measured root growth. Results showed that between 0.5% and 1.0% salt, about 50% of seeds won’t germinate.
