Model United Nations gives students a valuable introduction to diplomacy, research, and global problem-solving. Representing Spain and Peru made this a meaningful opportunity to explore multiple perspectives.
Our high school students had a wonderful time at Covestro recently! They got to participate in hands-on science experiments, including a demonstration of open and closed circuits and a simulation with dry ice. They even got to hold and pop bubbles filled with carbon dioxide!
During the lab tours, students got to see testing rooms full of equipment and machines used daily at Covestro. A highlight of the day was learning about different types of foam and their real-world uses. They also learned how Covestro's materials are used to create products such as front doors, refrigerators, and plywood.
Throughout the day, the students also learned about interview skills and saw skits depicting successful interviews.
Thanks to the Covestro staff for a FUN day of hands-on learning!

On October 9th, our middle and high school students traded their usual routines for a chance to experience interests, try something new, and just have fun!
We built with LEGO, played chess and checkers, got outside for a little football fun, played hacky sack, made bracelets, did dot art, talked about our favorite recipes and movies, played board, video, and card games, painted, created, and had FUN. All of this is part of Club Days.
Huge thanks to our teachers for sharing their interests, passions, and time to make these opportunities possible for our students!

Check out the work of our talented middle and high school artists.
On a summer-like day, no one wants to think about snow, but that’s exactly where some of our high school students were focusing today. ❄️
This year, Ms. Mazur’s high school art classes and art club are participating in PennDOT’s Paint the Plow competition. The yearly competition promotes safe winter driving by having schools create moving art pieces connected to a theme. This winter’s theme is “Snow Means Slow.”
In a few weeks, we will be up against schools from Beaver, Lawrence, and Allegheny counties to see whose plow has the best design. Watch this page - we’ll post the link when public voting opens.
And be on the lookout this winter as OUR plow will be used to clear roads within our school district!
Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow! (But maybe not until December) ❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️
