Kit’s Interactive Theatre made an exciting return to John Hill School this week, bringing history to life for our students! There were two engaging performances, The Oregon Trail for our 3rd and 4th graders, and Ancient Egypt for our 5th and 6th graders. Through storytelling, music, and audience participation, students and staff alike were immersed in these fascinating historical eras while having a fantastic time learning. We extend our sincere thanks to the PTA for sponsoring this wonderful and educational assembly!
The 3rd grade students at JHS recently completed their very first STEM activity during their TAKE Flight class, and the excitement was contagious! Our TAKE Flight classes are specially designed to enrich and empower students through hands-on, creative experiences that encourage problem-solving and collaboration. For this activity, students participated in a chain link challenge, where they designed and connected individual paper links to create the longest and strongest chain possible.
