One of Drama Club's biggest missions is putting high-quality theatre in front of as many kids as possible! Today, Drama Club was thrilled to give all HES 5th graders the opportunity to see the first act of The Lightning Thief at Quincy Community Theatre! We were especially excited to see current Drama Club member Quinton Miller on stage as Grover! Quinton was double cast as Luke and Grover, demonstrating incredible adaptability and dedication as he learned and performed two very different roles. We are so proud of what we witnessed on stage today and equally proud of how respectfully and enthusiastically our 5th graders represented Lewis County! #cougarsonstage #LightningThiefQCT

Our 7th-grade science students are getting hands-on with genetics by extracting DNA from strawberries! During this exciting lab, they were able to see DNA up close and learn how genetic material is present in all living things. It’s always amazing to watch science come to life in the classroom. Great work, scientists!

Our 8th grade students modeled five types of fossils (trace, mold, cast, resin, and true form) during a hands-on lab. Great job exploring how fossils form and what they teach us about Earth’s history!
