Happy Anniversary Ms. Foster!

Ms Foster and Dr. Foster (long-time educators at ACS) celebrated their 32nd anniversary today ... Congrats!

Also, congratulations to Rex and Aaron on winning the Great Plant Growing Contest!  Pictured below shows Rex and Aaron with ... evidently, a science groupie ... everyone like scientists and contest winners!  Congrats on a great effort!



Tomorrow we are having an organizational meeting for a early Spring trip to NYC ... President's Day weekend ... my room at 7:20.  We have made three of these AP NYC trips in the past as well as seven trips to MarineLab in Key Largo.  We will have to see the numbers we are working with and what AAA - Bowling Green can do for us for group rates.  This trip would be like the others ... American Museum of Natural History / Hayden Planetarium, Metropolitan Art Museum, Empire State Building, Statue of Liberty, Chinatown, Ground Zero, Broadway Musical, Times Square, St. Paul's Cathedral, Fifth Avenue, CBS Early Show and much more in three days ... no sleep, just go and go!

We continued our study of genetics / modes of inheritance in Genetics today.  The dihybrid parakeet problem and "Who's My Daddy" problem ... Tomorrow, our first test ... Chapters 1-3 and some bio review material.  Seniors will miss class for superlative elections ...

We had a unit test in Selected Topics and a few students will have to finish tomorrow.  We will start our study of earth science tomorrow and after Labor Day.

Students are finishing their small group programming problem ... tomorrow is last day.  After Labor Day, we will move on to Microsoft qBASIC.

Ran some errands after school ... ASCS office for farm maps, drug store and Post Office.  Still watering plants close to the house ... I have given up on the rest.

Lots of contests this weekend ... volleyball, cross country and football ... Good luck to all!
