The junior high students completed a spatial ecology lab earlier this week. We were fortunate enough to get to use radio telemetry equipment from the San Diego Zoo Wildlife Alliance. This research tool helps scientists locate animals in the wild after a reintroduction effort. Although our frogs were plush, the students were able to locate all of them hidden around the building and get a sense of how difficult this type of research would be!

The 8th graders successfully completed frog dissections last week as their final lab of junior high science. They were able to see how frog anatomy compares to human anatomy.
In Ms. Tussey's Computer Applications class at RHHS, they have been working on learning Microsoft Office with specific emphasis on Excel. The last half of the semester she has been working on getting students certified as a Microsoft Excel Specialist. The journey to this achievement wasn't easy, with rigorous practice sessions and MANY tech challenges along the way. The exam is a proctored session that is timed and students have 50 minutes to complete. This is the same certification that adults can take in the business industry.
We're thrilled to announce that four of our dedicated students have successfully passed the Microsoft Excel Certification Exam so far! A big congratulations to Zadyn Loudermilk, Brenden Mattingly, Ollie Fisher, and Gadge Clark for this fantastic accomplishment!
Special applause to Zadyn Loudermilk for acing the test in a record-breaking 32 minutes and 53 seconds, with an outstanding score of 93%!
