Last week, Discovery Learning took place on the HHS campus. It was a week of building relationships. Students visited teachers' classes and signed up for their fun learning. This presented an opportunity for the teachers to get to know the students as well as students getting to know teachers. Sheila Hopson, Magnet Coordinator on the campus, also had students sign up and help capture the photos used in this post! The day was filled with making gifts for teachers, painting with a twist, mind games, the forge, students completing FAFSA , nail tech, and scholarships and lots more! #GoBobcats #ALLIN #HopeForTheFuture

On Friday, January 24, students across the HAPS, YMS, and BHE campuses participated in an exciting Discovery Learning Friday, part of our Magnet Program. This event allowed students to explore a wide range of creative and hands-on activities designed to spark their imaginations and build new skills. Teachers led engaging sessions in activities such as latch hook, weave looming, Jenga, diamond painting, resin jewelry making, chunky yarn blankets, Legos, and more. Students also enjoyed planting bulbs, crafting with paper, making clay sculptures, practicing origami, and even songwriting. The day was a wonderful opportunity for students to tap into their creativity, discover new interests, and work collaboratively with their peers. Thanks to Allison Rowe for supplying the photos and info! #GoBobcats #ALLIN #HopeForTheFuture
