Mrs. Towles’ Earth and Space classes along with Ms. Edwards conducted a Properties of Minerals Lab in which students engaged in hands-on testing of nine different mineral samples. Students investigated each mineral’s hardness, luster, streak, and scratch properties, recording their observations and using the evidence they collected to compare and identify the minerals. The activity provided students with an opportunity to apply classroom concepts through direct observation, experimentation, and scientific investigation.

Yesterday, Mrs. Pegueros's Foundations of Biology students put science into action during an engaging enzyme potato lab!
Students explored how enzymes speed up chemical reactions by observing the reaction between potato enzymes and hydrogen peroxide. Through hands-on investigation, they discovered how enzymes function, why they are essential for living organisms, and how factors can affect enzyme activity.
Learning comes to life when students can investigate, observe, and make real-world connections. Great job to Mrs. Pegueros's class for their curiosity, teamwork, and scientific thinking today!

As the year closes out, our Year Two Educator Prep students made classroom layouts using paper, felt, popsicle sticks, stickers, and much more to model what they want their future classrooms to look like. Each student selected a grade level and subject area, then designed a classroom environment that reflected their ideas. Take a look at how each student added their own personality into their classroom. They did an amazing job showcasing their creativity, organization, and passion for education.

We were excited to welcome Mrs. Pat Neal with the Mississippi State Extension Service to speak with our students through her “Gray for a Day” presentation! Our students had a wonderful opportunity to learn about caring for elderly individuals and better understand the challenges many face as they age.
Through hands-on activities and discussions, students explored how our senses, mobility, and daily abilities can change over time. We also made meaningful connections between caring for the elderly and caring for young children in Early Childhood Education, recognizing the importance of patience, compassion, communication, and understanding in both stages of life.
Thank you, Mrs. Neal, for such an informative and engaging presentation that gave our students valuable real-world insight and encouraged empathy for others! 💙👵👶
