In chemistry, we are finishing up our unit that revolved around the law of conservation of mass. Students practiced this law by doing a lab that dealt with vinegar and baking soda! Students were asked to weigh the material before the reaction and after the reaction to check the mass. Students will be using this as their summative assessment and heading into break!
In Physical Education II the curriculum has shifted from beginner yoga to Sexual Health Education. Mr. Tolene will be joining teaching forces with Ms. Jane who is from our Erie Clinic to deliver the instruction. Ms. Jane is from Houston, Texas and is here continuing her education in the wellness field with hopes of M.D. being connected to her name.

Our sophomores will be analyzing topics like local community resources, healthy relationships and other relevant topics like social media and teen dating.

By the way, did you know that there are about 5 love languages people use to express themselves? Students are taking the 5 love language quiz to see where they land and maybe shed some light on themselves as they mature. Sexual Health will take Sophomores to winter break and by that time should have an even better understanding of this important part of our

Relationships exist on a spectrum: In this small group activity students must pick which scenario has characteristics that represent healthy, unhealthy, or abusive. Students review, discuss, and confirm where the line can be drawn.

Hello! It is approaching the end of the first semester! Students have been working on completing 3 college applications, personal statements, and the FAFSA! Seniors should also be working on completing any work for all of their other courses. This Semester is a big milestone for seniors because for many seniors this semester determines if they are still on track to graduate, and it is also the last semester that colleges they are applying to will be able to see their GPA (grade point average). Counselors will be meeting with seniors and checking their status because the requirements seniors need to graduate is very personal based on each individual student's need.

If parents/guardians have any concerns about graduation requirements, please reach out to the counseling team. (773-534-4000) and ask to speak with your student’s counselor.

Starting in January our dance students will be participating in the Fusion Program, a partnership with Ensemble Espanol Dance Theater, Muntu Dance Theatre, and Northeastern Illinois University. As part of this program, students will receive 6 master classes in Flamenco and West African dance traditions taught by professional performing artists.

The classes will take place during students' regular dance class and will be part of their 2nd semester grade. No special equipment or clothing is required. Students should wear comfortable clothing they can move easily in as well as close-toed shoes that secure around their heels. Students who are not dressed appropriately may not be able to participate.

Want to see your student perform these dances? Encourage them! If we have enough participants, we will find a way to exhibit our new skills in the spring.

If you have any questions, please contact Mrs. Potter (jtpotter@cps.edu).
