⚓ Exploring New Horizons!

CHS students had the opportunity to attend We Work the Waterways in Tulsa, a hands-on career exploration event focused on maritime industries and the future of our waterways. 🌊

Through interactive stations and live demos, students connected with industry pros, learned about high-demand careers like engineering, logistics, and environmental science, and discovered how their passions can fuel the nation's infrastructure and economy. 🛠️🚢

Whether college-bound or career-focused, this experience opened eyes and doors!

🕵️‍♂️ In Mrs. Perry's Forensic Science class, students took on the roles of eyewitness and sketch artist! One student gave a suspect description while the other translated it into a composite sketch, no peeking allowed! ✍️

Once complete, they compared their sketches to the real photo. Let's just say… some careers in forensic artistry may be on the horizon! 🔍

🚀 What an out-of-this-world opportunity!

Ms. Henry challenged Catalayah and Westside students to shoot for the stars—and Ms. Johnson’s 4th-grade class answered the call! Their hard work earned them an unforgettable visit with Leland Melvin—former NFL player, NASA astronaut, engineer, and education advocate! 🌟🧑‍🚀

Mr. Melvin shared his incredible story, inspired students with his journey, and reminded them that dreams and determination can take you anywhere—even space! 🌍

🛰️ Fun Facts about Leland Melvin:

The only NFL draftee to ever fly in space!

Logged over 565 hours on two Space Shuttle missions (STS-122 & STS-129)

Famously took his NASA portrait with his rescue dogs, Jake & Scout 🐶

Served as NASA’s Associate Administrator for Education

🙌 Huge thanks to Ms. Henry for organizing such a powerful experience—and to Mr. Melvin for fueling curiosity, courage, and the spirit of exploration in our students.
