Students collaborated to design posters that explain how these powerful events develop and impact our world.
They’re practicing Great Expectations like Cooperation, Responsibility, and a Positive Attitude, even when the topic gets a little stormy! ☀️

Throwback Thursday – Christmas Movie Character Day! 🎅🎥
Zebs tried his best to steal Christmas as the Grinch, while Dazzle showed up as her true self, a superhero elf spreading cheer and sparkle wherever she goes! 💚✨
#CPSZEBRAPRIDE


This activity is more than a fun reward; it’s a living example of Great Expectations. Students are showing respect, responsibility, and citizenship while modeling strong reading habits for younger peers. They're lifting each other up, cheering each other to success, and practicing Service by giving the gift of storytelling and time.
We’re proud of our students for making meaningful choices and growing into leaders with heart. 💛

Ms. Brown’s class has been diving into the world of owls, learning about their diets, habitats, and adaptations. The highlight? Dissecting real owl pellets to uncover what these fascinating birds eat!
With gloves on and curiosity sparked, students explored the bones and fur hidden inside, identifying tiny rodent skulls, vertebrae, and more. It was a hands-on science lesson they won’t soon forget!
Way to go, scientists! 🧠🦉
#CPSZebraPride









English IV students wrapped up their Canterbury Tales unit by stepping into the shoes of Chaucer’s iconic characters. Each pair researched a medieval pilgrim, from knights and nuns to physicians and millers, and designed a custom coat of arms to represent their character’s identity and tale.
With historical context, literary analysis, and creative storytelling, students transformed the classroom into a Medieval pilgrimage, becoming true experts on their characters. What a fantastic blend of literature, history, and art!

Zebs and Dazzle joined the fun for Anything But a Backpack Day! 🎒🚫
Let’s just say… their “alternative carrying methods” turned a few heads in the admin office. 😂🎄
#CPSZEBRAPRIDE


Our 3rd and 4th grade students took the stage and took us on a toe-tappin’ journey through the Wild West in this year’s musical, Go West! Their performance was full of heart, humor, and harmony, and they absolutely knocked it out of the park!
👏👏 A big round of applause to our talented students and dedicated staff for making this show unforgettable!
#RoosaRocks #CPSZEBRAPRIDE







Students in Mrs. Newbury and Mrs. Perry’s science classes dove into the concepts of evolution and adaptation by designing butterflies that camouflaged seamlessly into their classroom environment.
To test their understanding (and creativity), principals were challenged to spot the hidden butterflies, an engaging activity that demonstrated how camouflage can help animals survive in the wild.
From science to strategy, our students are learning just how powerful adaptation can be!
#CPSZEBRAPRIDE










Dazzle and her crew hit the runway, while Zebs and the judges rated their looks. The final scores? Let’s just say… the judges were brutally honest. 😂
But Dazzle and her crew still brought the sparkle and sass! ✨

Our Biology students explored cellular respiration by combining water, yeast, and varying sugar levels to discover which mixture produced the most carbon dioxide. The result? Inflating balloons! 🎈✨
This simple but powerful experiment showed science in action, turning everyday ingredients into an exciting, hands-on lesson about CO₂ production. Love seeing our students’ curiosity and critical thinking come to life! 🍞💡

Patience isn’t exactly Dazzle’s strongest skill—no shaking or snooping, little elf! 😉
#CPSZEBRAPRIDE


Students in our Biomedical program dove deep into the anatomy of the heart, identifying chambers, valves, and major arteries and veins, and tracing the full path of blood flow through this essential organ.
The experience culminated in a heart dissection, giving students an up-close look at the incredible structure they've been studying in class. From theory to application, these future health professionals are gaining the skills and knowledge to make a real impact.
We’re so proud of their curiosity, focus, and passion for learning!
