The high school did a “First Friday” event this morning to give teachers a chance to collaborate and students a chance to try new activities. These students collected leaves and cut them from clay. Eventually we will make a mural with the tiles!
Here is your link for the livestream against Troy tonight.

Greetings Jim,
It’s always a great day when I get to reach out to districts to celebrate their success.

What do you do when the Jackson Heights High School and Middle School needs more shelving dividers in the library, but the part is no longer made? Hand the project over to sophomores Colten Browning and Dyllon Wilson to fabricate them using the school's computerized plasma cutter. As part of Paul Lierz's Ag Mechanics class, Browning took measurements of the shelving dividers and created a cut file using DesignEdge software. He then sent the file to the computerized plasma cutter. After the dividers were cut, Wilson used an angle grinder to quickly smooth edges and remove any slag. The metal tabs at the end were bent 90 degrees and the final dividers were painted black.
Mr. Henry and eighth grade students are testing to see if they are faster than a bowling ball downhill.
