Students had a productive first week back from Winter Break. The ninth grade classes have already begun planning out how to make great green spaces on our campus, while the tenth grade students have been debating free speech and religious sensitivity and experimenting in a lab using indicators and calcium chloride (or perhaps other chemicals – chemistry never stuck with me).
