Sixth-grade students at Callahan Middle School participated in their first science lab. The activity introduced the Scientific Process, a skill they will continue to use throughout their academic careers. The Flower Lab provided a hands-on opportunity to begin applying classroom content to real-world learning.

🚨CSI: Anatomy Edition! 🧪🔬

Today in Ms. Spiezio’s Anatomy and Physiology Honors class at Yulee High School, students turned into forensic investigators to solve the mysterious Death of Pickles! 🥒💀 They performed a full autopsy, examined the evidence, and worked together to uncover the cause of death.

Science has never been this thrilling! 🕵️‍♀️🧠
Way to go, future medical examiners! 🩺✨

🧼🧠 Mrs. Caula’s 2nd-grade class took a deep dive into the “S” in their schoolwide PBIS acronym NEST, Safety First! Students explored how to stay safe at school, including a key lesson on keeping hands clean and germ-free.

Their learning led to their very first science experiment: Why Soap Works. Students discovered that soap removes oils from our skin that trap dirt and germs, making handwashing a crucial part of staying healthy and safe.

Hands-on learning that sticks with science and safety, working side by side.
