JCNHS Girls BB Highlight video link. This is a great bunch of girls. First 11 games we were 5-6 Last 11 games we were 9-2 with overtime loss in substate championship game. This group showed a lot of character and toughness. No matter what the score was you could not count them out of any game. They grew so much over the season. I am so proud of them. Hopefully, they learned more than basketball as well.

The High School is sponsoring its annual food drive for the Pantry of Hope in Nortonville. It will run until Thursday, March 4th.
While the ultimate goal is to do this for a good cause, the Student Council is still hosting a competition for it. The class with the average highest points per student (the total amount of points the class has divided by the number of students in the grade) will win a prize. See the attached list for points.
Both cash and nonperishable items are accepted, so send in food with a high school student if you can. Thank you!
I've always told my chemistry students that my favorite element in the world is Silver! This week we are performing a five day lab during which (the first day) we will be growing silver crystals. The sad thing is that during day two we react those beautiful silver crystals with nitric acid, and produce silver nitrate...which is no where near as pretty. These pictures show the silver crystals growing on a copper wire. The time lapse YouTube video is condensed down from two hours of actual video. (If anyone is curious, this lab is all about stoichiometry!!)
