📺📜 Meet the Press: 1680! 📜📺

History came to life in the classroom as our students stepped into the shoes of famous figures from the American colonial era for a special edition of Meet the Press: 1680! 🎤🏛️

Students researched their assigned historical figures, dressed in character, and presented information from the perspective of the person they portrayed. From John Winthrop, Roger Williams, Anne Hutchinson, Metacom, John Smith, Pocahontas, and William Penn, our students brought the past to life through creativity, research, and role-play! 👏📚

What a great way to make history interactive, memorable, and meaningful! ❤️🤍🦅

🔬 Teacher Feature: Bringing Cutting-Edge Research into the Classroom! 🔬

This summer, one of our high school biology teachers, Melissa Farina, traded her summer break for a lab coat! As part of the Research Experiences for Teachers (RET) program at Penn State Harrisburg, she’s been hard at work conducting vital biomedical research.

Her project focuses on diabetic nephropathy—specifically modeling how fluctuating blood glucose levels impact renal podocytes (cells crucial for kidney function) and testing potential protective treatments.

The best part? She isn’t keeping this knowledge in the lab. The cutting-edge skills, techniques, and insights she gained this summer will directly power new classroom research projects with her students this upcoming school year!

Huge shoutout to our dedicated educators who never stop learning and inspiring the next generation of scientists!
