Project Ghana/Engineering

Mr. David Wronko’s new social studies class is engaged with two new programs every Friday. The first is Project Ghana. Last Friday, Mr. Wronko’s students spoke to the students from the Solid Rock Foundation Elementary School in Ghana. They talked about hobbies, school, sports, history, and culture. Some of Mr. Wronko’s students are now from Haiti and they had the opportunity to share their history and culture with the students in Ghana.

The second program Mr. Wronko’s students are involved with is Mr. Kevin Gould’s engineering class. Currently for Black History Month they will be constructing a WWII plane symbolizing the Tuskegee Airmen.

Prehistoric Times Magazine

Student projects live on through the Cretaceous Warzone ad published in this month’s Prehistoric Times Magazine issue 140. Students for extra credit, and to improve their writing ability, write engaging stories about prehistoric creatures in combat situations.
