🧠 Modeling the Brain Stem: Literally!
Psychology students brought science to life with Play-Doh as they explored the structure and function of the brain stem. By sculpting its key parts, students connected form to function, understanding how this vital area of the brain supports breathing, heart rate, and sleep regulation.
This hands-on approach deepens learning and builds lasting connections between classroom concepts and real-world biology.

🚀 Westside GT Students Reach for the Stars!
Our 5th-grade GT students had an out-of-this-world experience at Tulsa Regional STEM Alliance’s Space Day at the Discovery Lab!
They met a real astronaut, an Oklahoma native who worked on the International Space Station in the 1990s, and even created their own mission patches as part of the adventure.
Special thanks to Mrs. Henry, Westside’s STEM teacher, who applied for and planned this incredible opportunity. Her passion for STEM education continues to open doors and inspire our students to dream big! 🌌

🌿 Science in Action!
Our Living Science Elective students didn’t just learn about photosynthesis, they watched it happen in real time! Using spinach leaves and a little sunlight, they observed this incredible process turn light energy into plant food.
This hands-on lab sparked curiosity, inspired thoughtful questions, and reinforced real-world science concepts. Activities like these empower students to think critically, observe closely, and engage deeply, hallmarks of our commitment to Excellence, Innovation, Purpose, and the Great Expectations model.
💡 Science isn’t just in the textbook… it’s alive and thriving in our classrooms!

Our bus drivers do so much more than get students from point A to point B. They love, lead, and care for our students, creating a positive and welcoming start to each day.
A perfect example is Mrs. Hartley at Catalayah. Each morning, she arrives early to read a book to her riders on Wednesdays 📚—a small act that makes a big impact on our students’ day and helps build a culture of care, curiosity, and community.
Thank you, Mrs. Hartley, for going above and beyond and showing what it truly means to put students first. Claremore is lucky to have you! 🦓💛

🧪 Chromatography in Action!
Our Chemistry students dove into the properties of matter with a hands-on chromatography lab! They explored how mixtures can be separated based on their physical and chemical properties, analyzing ink from various markers to reveal the hidden pigments within.
It’s always exciting to see science come to life in full color! 🎨🔬
