Right before winter break, our wonderful Family Association provided their annual winter activity for the advisory class.

This year, students were given a codex puzzle (a la the "cryptex" from Dan Brown`s novel "the Da Vinci Code") to solve, in which was the final clue to go to a secret location on campus and earn their prize!

Guitar Heroes!

In Intro to Design class, our 5th and 6th graders created their own electric guitars using micro:bit. From engineering to exterior design, our students showcased their knowledge, creativity, and humor through their bespoke masterpieces. Check out their signature poses -- especially Tobin in the corner!

(Shout out to Mr. Sueyoshi and TA Sajal!)

Our amazing 6th-grade students recently wrapped up Unit 2: Learning Skills with an exciting and creative project!

Some students took the stage with individual presentations, engaging their audience in imaginative ways to showcase their understanding of the unit’s key concepts. Others teamed up to design original board games that highlighted essential study skills in a fun and interactive format.

Fabulous job, 6th graders—your creativity and hard work truly shone through!

Our curious 7th graders wrapped up their trigonometry ratio project in forensic science last Friday.

As part of this hands-on project, they used trig ratios to estimate the height of impacts or individuals involved by analyzing blood spatter patterns at a mock crime scene. This engaging activity offered valuable insight into how math plays a crucial role in real-life applications, especially in forensic investigations.

Fantastic work, 7th graders!
