šŸ‹šŸ„” Culinary Collaboration at CHS! šŸ‘©ā€šŸ³šŸ‘Øā€šŸ³

At Carthage High School, our teachers don’t just teach...they inspire. Mrs. Horsley’s Intro to Culinary students recently joined forces with Mrs. Smith’s Advanced Culinary class for a hands-on lesson that blended fresh homemade lemonade, perfectly seasoned potatoes, and a whole lot of Bulldog pride.

Intro students practiced their fundamental kitchen skills, while Advanced students stepped into leadership roles by mentoring, guiding, and modeling what it means to succeed. Behind it all were two incredible teachers whose passion, innovation, and dedication to student growth continue to make CHS a place where learning comes alive.

This lesson is just one shining example of the wide array of Career & Technical Education (CTE) opportunities offered at CHS: from Culinary Arts to Graphic Design, Health Science, Agriculture, and beyond. These programs open doors, build skills, and prepare our students for bright futures.

We are proud of our teachers. We are proud of our students. We are proud of CHS. ā¤ļøšŸ¤

šŸ“šāœØ Celebrating Teaching Excellence in Room A10! āœØšŸ“š

Mrs. Hammett’s Human Growth & Development students finished their Understanding Human Development unit in the most engaging way possible by blending creativity, collaboration, and critical thinking.

With a focus on Maslow’s Hierarchy of Needs, students first listened to The Real Story of the Three Little Pigs and then worked in teams to design and build strong, safe structures using just 15 gumdrops and 15 toothpicks. šŸ—ļøšŸ· The challenge brought laughter, problem-solving, and a whole lot of Bulldog spirit—proving that learning at CHS goes far beyond the textbook.

šŸ‘ We’re so proud of Mrs. Hammett for creating a classroom where lessons come alive and students are inspired to think big. She’s one of the many incredible teachers at Carthage High School who pour their energy and passion into making every day meaningful for our students. ā¤ļøšŸ¤

🧬✨ Anatomy in Action with Mrs. Hadwin’s Class! ✨🧬

Learning comes alive when students get to step out of their seats and experience concepts firsthand. In Anatomy & Physiology, Mrs. Hadwin’s students took their lesson on directional and regional terms of the human body to the next level by going full scale!

Armed with giant sheets of butcher paper and markers, students traced full-sized outlines of the human body and then worked together to label and model anatomical regions. From identifying the proximal end of the femur to mapping out the cephalic and abdominal regions, the class used collaboration, creativity, and movement to master important medical vocabulary.

This kind of interactive learning not only builds deeper understanding but also creates a classroom environment where students are engaged, confident, and excited about what they’re learning. A huge shoutout to Mrs. Hadwin for making science unforgettable and showing our Bulldogs that education can be active, hands-on, and fun! ā¤ļøšŸ¤
