Will Rogers Junior High

ACTOR OF THE WEEK✨
For the week of Dec. 12

This week we’re celebrating Avery Dipman and Collin Taber for their outstanding commitment, impressive line memorization, and consistently positive attitudes. These two have truly gone above and beyond, and we are so proud of the energy and dedication they bring to our stage! 🎭

#CPSZEBRAPRIDE

Our ELVES said good-bye to Mrs. Hammack and Mrs. G's students and UBER'ed to the airport to catch their flight back to the North Pole! We have loved all the adventures Jolly Jerry and Jingle Bella went on and are excited to see them again next year!

Mr. Nadal’s Science Classes Are Growing Something Cool! 🌿
Students are working hard with a hands-on plant experiment! They’re growing different plants in three types of soil to see which one helps them thrive the most. 🪴👀

A huge shoutout to Green Valley Sod Nursery for donating the soil! Students will be sharing their results with the nursery to help them learn which soils work best with different plants — real science making real impact! 🌎

Can’t wait to see what sprouts next! 🌱

Mrs. Boyd’s Native Culture class got their hands messy — in the BEST way!
They made holiday clay ornaments. From cool patterns to fun shapes, these artists showed off some serious talent.

#CPSZEBRAPRIDE

Mrs. Hammack’s elves needed a little extra help! 🎄
They’re busy making Christmas trees and called on her students to lend a hand and get the job done! Looks like the students accepted the challenge!

#CPSZEBRAPRIDE

"Dress Like a Grandma or Reindeer” Day was SO FUN!
These lovely ladies didn’t just dress like grandmas…
they BECAME grandmas.
We’re talking curlers, cardigans, sensible shoes, and the “I’ve-got-candy-in-my-purse” energy.
They absolutely crushed it!
And the reindeer - who wouldn't love that reindeer!

#CPSZEBRAPRIDE

OUR ELVES ARE UP TO MORE MISCHIEF IN MRS. HAMMACK’S CLASS!
What silly things are they doing today?

Well… Jolly is PAINTING Jingle Bella! 🎨
YIKES! These two are extra goofy this morning!

Stay tuned to see what kind of holiday hijinks they get into next!

Mrs. Williams and her team went ALL OUT for Holiday Sock Day! Check out these festive, fancy socks—talk about spreading some holiday cheer from head to toe!

#CPSZEBRAPRIDE

Mr. Borntreger's 7th grade math classes got to do an experiment that compares experimental versus theoretical probability...with dice! Students used their understanding of theoretical probability to predict how many of each number would in theory be rolled and compared their estimations with the actual results...experimental probability.
Being able to make informed predictions and analyze the similarities and differences from the results helps everyone to make decisions and conclusions based on what actually happens versus what is expected.

#CPSZEBRAPRIDE

The Will Rogers Junior High Winter Concert was a HUGE success! 🎤
Our choir brought the cheer with holiday classics, modern hits, and cozy winter songs. From start to finish, our singers absolutely shined on stage!

We are so proud of their hard work and amazing talent!

We are so proud of you, Judah — keep shining on that stage!
