Ms. Golbek's Environmental Science class brought learning to life with a creative, hands-on project! 🍂
Students explored the campus, collecting fallen leaves to study their structure and identify species. After diving into lessons on plants, water cycles, and seasonal changes, they took it a step further—transforming their knowledge into wearable art! They created unique clothing pieces using leaf impressions, combining science with sustainability. This innovative project not only deepened their understanding of ecology but also showcased the beauty of nature in everyday life. 🌟 #CPSZEBRAPRIDE

Roosa Elementary 3rd Grade classes brought the tradition of Corn
Husk Dolls to life by creating their own, blending creativity with cultural learning.❤🌾
The Native American legend of the corn husk doll tells of the Creator shaping the beauty of the Earth, including the plants, animals, and the Three Sisters—the sustainers of life: corn, squash, and beans. Among them, the Corn Husk was revered, and Native Americans crafted faceless corn husk dolls as a reminder to remain humble and never think oneself superior to others. Way to go, Zebras!🦓❤ #CPSZEBRAPRIDE

One of CHS’s most cherished traditions is when football players ask staff members to wear their jerseys for the day. This heartfelt gesture is a way for the players to honor those who have impacted their lives.🦓❤
For our staff members, being asked to represent a student in this way is an honor but a meaningful reminder of the special bonds we build. It’s a tradition that celebrates both the student-athletes and the educators who play a crucial role in shaping their lives.💪🏽🏈❤ #CPSZEBRAPRIDE

At Catalayah Elementary, Mr. Winiecke’s music classes have been diving into the world of the xylophone! Did you know this percussion instrument has roots dating back to ancient Africa and Asia? Its name comes from the Greek words “xylon” (wood) and “phone” (sound), meaning “wood sound”.
Xylophones are not just fun to play—they help develop rhythm, coordination, and math skills as students explore patterns and pitches. Our little musicians are learning how to make this timeless instrument come to life! 🎵👏
