🏛️ Learning Beyond the Classroom! 🏛️
Mr. Moguel, Mrs. Bender, and our 10th-grade Civics scholars recently traveled to the Halifax Historic District for an immersive, hands-on history experience—and what a day it was!
Throughout the day, our scholars explored historic site buildings, visited a Continental Army camp, and experienced living history demonstrations like hearth cooking and blacksmithing at the Bradford-Denton House. They also toured the Royal White-Hart Masonic Lodge No. 2, the Edward Cheek House, and even took part in self-guided exploration of the Underground Railroad Trail.
Scholars engaged in powerful learning opportunities, including:
📚 A history presentation on the origins of the “Tar Heel” identity
🎶 A live musical performance by the Syllabub Trio
📖 A presentation highlighting Free People of Color and their contributions as patriots
💥 An exciting musket-firing demonstration on Market Square
This experience brought history to life, allowing our scholars to connect classroom learning with real-world experiences. We are so proud of how they represented WECHS!

Although we weren’t able to celebrate on March 14, our Pi Day celebration yesterday was absolutely worth the wait! 🥧✨
Our scholars and staff enjoyed a day filled with math enrichment, problem-solving, learning, fun, and prizes! From scholar-led stations like a Math Escape Room, creating a Pi Chain, and a competitive Blooket challenge, engagement was high and excitement was even higher! 🔢🎉
Our staff had the tough job of judging a delicious pie tasting contest (a sweet highlight of the day! 😋), and we wrapped everything up with a schoolwide kickball game—soaking up the sunshine and enjoying time together before a well-deserved Spring Break #2. ☀️⚽
A huge shoutout to Dr. Acela Recentes and our Math Club for their incredible planning and dedication in making this event a success! 👏🏽
And a very special thank you to Araceli Recentes, who worked tirelessly behind the scenes to ensure everything ran smoothly—your hard work truly made a difference! 💙
What a wonderful way to kick off our break!
Reminder: Warren County Schools will operate on an early dismissal schedule on Thursday, April 2. The district will observe Easter Break from Friday, April 3 through Tuesday, April 7. Students will return to their regular schedules on Wednesday, April 8.
We wish our students, families, and staff a safe, restful, and well-deserved break.

🧪✨ Hands-On Chemistry in Action! ✨🧪
Mrs. Eaton’s Chemistry Honors scholars put their learning to the test during a Baking Soda and Vinegar Stoichiometry Lab!
Using sodium bicarbonate (baking soda) and acetic acid (vinegar), scholars conducted a chemical reaction to produce sodium acetate—a compound commonly used as a food preservative. 🧂🔬
This lab gave students the opportunity to apply their knowledge of stoichiometry, chemical equations, and percent error in a real-world, hands-on way. From measuring reactants to analyzing their results, our scholars were fully engaged in the scientific process!
We love seeing our scholars think critically, collaborate, and bring chemistry to life! 💡👏
