Mrs. Jones 4th Grade Social Studies classes at Miller Perry Elem. have been studying the different cultural regions of Native Americans.  Each child researched a tribe from one of the 4 cultural regions and constructed a dwelling and found interesting facts to share about their tribe.  We had fantastic participation with this project.  In the pictures are a few examples of some of the dwellings!  Pictured are Sean Patrick Clare, Jacob McMurray, and Noah Price.

 

 

 

 

 

  

Mrs. Jones 4th grade Science classes have been studying food chains, food webs, plant and adaptations.  During this unit, we have been observing chameleons and the changes they make in their habitats.  We have six chameleons that we are studying.  They have watched them eat and molt their skin.  We also have earthworms that decompose any decaying materials.  The students pictured are Delaney Chase, Jadyn Reeves, and Quinn Sarginger.

 

 

 

  

 

 

Central High School Accounting students experienced a field trip to downtown Bristol on September 19. The students visited an accounting firm on State Street where they met with the owner. They learned about what Certified Public Accountants duties might be in a firm and how to build a business. They learned about opportunities in different areas of accounting. They were allowed to ask questions and gain knowledge that might help them in their future career pathways. The students also toured downtown Bristol as the Rhythm & Roots crews prepared for the weekend. Many of these students stayed to volunteer their time for the Rhythm & Roots event. Sherrie Spiegler is the Accounting teacher at Central.

 

 

  

Twenty FBLA (Future Business Leaders of America) students from Central High School volunteered at Rhythm & Roots in downtown Bristol on September 19. The students worked at the five tents surrounding the event selling admittance bracelets. This is the first year that bracelets with micro-chips were used. The students experienced technology difficulties and were able to serve the public with a great attitude despite the problems. The adults working with the students were impressed with how they handled themselves and how they dealt with festival patrons who were a little impatient. It was a great experience for these FBLA students to gain experience in human relations. A big thank you to the following adults who helped FBLA volunteer at R&R: Diane Staubus, Tracy Buckland, Lisa Winkle, and Amber Ramsey. FBLA Advisors at Central are Sherrie Spiegler, Becky Smith, and Ginger Shackelford.
