Children of the faculty were welcomed into the classrooms and joined their parents for a day of learning, observation, and fun. Throughout the day, teachers’ children had the opportunity to experience a school day at the high school, sitting in on lessons and participating in activities.
For current students, classrooms felt more lively and interactive as they had the opportunity to meet the children of their teachers. Faculty incorporated fun activities to make the experience enjoyable fo the children, including making bookmarks and fingerprints, extracting DNA from strawberries, letter pressing, experiments, painting ornaments, gaming, an ice cream truck, friendship bracelet making, bucket drumming, boomwhacking, and many other activities throughout the campus. Additionally, fresh popcorn was available for the children throughout the day thanks to the Student Council’s popcorn machine, with around eighty bags handed out.
Over 100 children joined the high school for a memorable and rewarding day!
