NHS team tennis defeated El Campo 15-4 yesterday afternoon!
From 1776 text to 21st-century theory! 🇺🇸 For their first major AP Gov project, Mrs. Hajdik’s students created Blackout Poetry directly from the Declaration of Independence. Their goal: isolate key words from the original text to illustrate foundational Unit 1 ideas. They created some amazing projects!
🔬 Biology in action! 🧬
This week in Mrs. Korenek’s, Mrs. Collin’s & Mrs. Muniz’s classrooms, our Biology students got to take their learning from the textbook to the microscope!
Students practiced using microscopes while observing Elodea plant cells and their own cheek cells. They were able to see firsthand that cells aren’t just something we read about—they’re all around us! 🌱🧫
From setting up slides and focusing their microscopes to identifying cell structures and making observations, our students were busy being scientists! 🧪🔬
We love seeing those “WHOA, I can actually see a cell!” moments happen in the classroom. 💙
Here’s a peek at what our Biology students have been up to! 📸✨

Thanks to NHS Student Council for the treats today!
Students in Mrs. Erfurdt, Mrs. Collins, and Mrs. Muniz’s aquatic science classes used the unique properties of water, such as cohesion and adhesion, to move a water droplet through a laminated maze! Learning in action! 💧
Learning from the leaders! Principles of Law students explored the careers and contributions of law enforcement leaders through an engaging gallery walk activity.
Learning, creating, and giving back! Our Child Advocacy Club members are learning to use looms to make handmade beanies for children.
JV football vs Santa Fe this Thursday evening!
Students in Mrs. Erfurdt, Mrs. Collins, and Mrs. Muniz’s aquatic science classes explored the diverse world of aquatic science careers through a gallery walk. They shared their research, learned about careers from their classmates, and discovered many opportunities in the aquatic science field. My favorite response from the students? Hearing that they used to think these careers required advanced degrees and years of school and training, but now realize that there are aquatic science careers accessible for everyone! What an awesome takeaway! 🐟💙
Yesterday marked the triumphant return of the Chess Club at NHS! Created by students, this club welcomes all challengers. Any students interested in joining should visit Mrs. Rivera's room (D201) on Wednesdays from 4-5pm.
Congratulations to senior Sophia Zeitz!

Volleyball tournament time in PE today!
🧬Learning by Teaching! Honors Biology students in Mrs. Erfurdt’s class participated in a quiz, quiz, trade activity to review macromolecules and enzymes. Students quizzed one another, explained their thinking, and traded questions, turning review into an engaging, collaborative learning experience! They closed each partner interaction with a positive affirmation to each other 💙
Congrats to our September Hard Hat award winners... Mrs. Peters and Ms. Rangel! Thanks for yall you do for NHS and our students.

Mrs. Korenek’s Environmental Systems class took learning outside today with a BioBlitz of our high school pond! 🌿🔎 Students observed biotic and abiotic factors, investigated ecosystem interactions, and used evidence to think about how our pond connects to the larger environment around us. 🌎💧
Community pep rally information!
