Over 100 million Christmas crabs travel to the coast to lay their eggs on Christmas Island. This 5 mile trip can take up to a month where the crabs travel through forests and roads. During CCT, the 1st & 2nd grade engineers were tasked to design and build a bridge for vehicles to drive over to prevent running over the crabs. These were some of Mrs. Bear's builds!

Kindergarteners are learning about snowflakes. In today's CCT class, Mrs. Culver's group rotated three stations to observe snowflakes with magnifying glasses, measure snowflakes with cubes, and design a snowflake with shapes. Lots of hands-on learning took place!

Concert Information

The AGWSR High School Computer Science students recently hosted a "Mock Career Fair" based on Technology Innovations. Each partnership was tasked with immersing themselves in a chosen technology innovation, creating a business based on that innovation and producing a career fair booth to present their business/tech. innovation to an unknown audience.
Fair Booths included: AI in Forensics, AI in Security and Automation, Autonomous Vehicles, Cybersecurity, AI in Radiology, and Digital Twinning.
We would like to thank all of the community participants who came in and experienced the hard work of our students through 1:1 Q&A's, observing presentations and scoring. Of course, like any good technology conference booth (even a mock one)... candy was included at each stop!

🌟 Cheerleader of the Week: Sophia! 🌟 Sophia jumped into cheer for the very first time this year—her senior year—and we couldn’t be more proud of her! She showed up willing to learn, ready to work, and excited to show off her Cougar spirit. Trying something totally new as a senior takes courage, and Sophia has embraced every practice, every routine, and every cheer with a positive attitude and a huge smile. We’re so grateful she chose to spend her final year shining with us. Way to go, Sophia! 💜🤍🐾
