This week, Mrs. Tiffany Edwards AP Environmental Science students conducted an owl pellet lab. This exercise gave students a hands-on look at food webs, predator-prey relationships, energy flow, and ecosystem interactions. By identifying prey remains, students connected classroom concepts to real-world ecology and saw how organisms are linked within an ecosystem. Great job to these students for taking their learning to the next level! 👏✨

AHS AP Physics 1 students in Mrs. Magen Atkinson's class kicked off the year with a hands-on Toothpick Conversion Lab!
Students measured the length and mass of toothpicks, developed their own conversion factors, and used dimensional analysis to convert real-world measurements into “toothpicks.” This fun challenge helped students see that unit conversion is more than a math skill—it’s an essential tool for solving physics problems and communicating scientific ideas.

Not only do we graduate our seniors on to their next adventure, but we also have teachers and support staff who are leaving us for their next steps. Some to retirement and some to new opportunities. We will miss them all. It won't be the same here without you. Thank you for all you have given to AHS, with a special note to Mr. Steve Patterson for 41 years at AHS. 💙❤️
