🎹 Mr. Hanchey’s Intro to Piano Class 🎶 It’s amazing to watch these students grow each week. From learning their very first notes to confidently playing short melodies, their progress has been incredible. The excitement on their faces when they master a new rhythm or recognize patterns on the keys is truly the best part. The classroom is filled with curiosity, focus, and plenty of smiles. These students are discovering how music works, building confidence, and having a ton of fun along the way. So proud of all their hard work — can’t wait to hear what they play next! 🎵✨

✍️ Writing is like sculpting - taking an idea and turning it into a final product with a specific purpose and audience in mind. 🧑‍🎨 This week, Honors English reviewed the writing process by building a pencil holder out of play-doh. Students discussed and agreed upon the criteria for the pencil holders, brainstormed an idea, and then created their first "draft," which was revised, edited, and published with an interesting, unique title. 📝 After looking at each other's creations, the class voted Lily Cardona's pencil holder as the creation that best fit the criteria. Go Lily! 👏🏼
