HM - Pizza and Fractions- The Huachuca Mountain 1st graders took a field trip to Peter Piper Pizza on Friday the 28th. The group started out learning about nutrition and food choices before having a chance to add toppings to their personal pizza. While the pizzas were cooking the students showed off their knowledge of fractions. In order to win extra play points they had to practice fractions in their groups with the help of giant cardboard pizzas. After enjoying their pizza there was plenty of time for everyone to have fun playing games and collect their prizes. Thank you to the folks at Peter Piper for a great time!
JCMS 6th Grade Family Night. Last night JCMS opened its doors for families to stroll the campus, familiarize themselves with locations and ask questions. The Coyote Band welcomed the families outside on their way to the library along with PTSO Volunteers. After a short introduction by Principal Wright the visitors got to explore on their own, and if there were any questions the student council was around to answer them. Thank you team Coyote for welcoming everyone!
