🔬🧪 WRJH Junior High Biology in Action! 🧪🔬
To kick off our Biology unit, students explored samples from Claremore Lake, a local pond, algae, insects, and even cells—all under the microscope! 👀
Thanks to a grant from CPSF, we’re able to project live microscope views onto a TV screen, so students can see everything in real time—and even record it for future classes. How cool is that?!
This is always a favorite unit—full of curiosity, discovery, and a whole lot of wow moments!

Last week was Paraprofessional Appreciation Day, and even though we’re a few days late, we didn’t want to miss the chance to recognize these incredible individuals.
Our paraprofessionals at WRJH go above and beyond every single day to support our teachers, uplift our students, and keep everything running smoothly. Their dedication, patience, and heart make a difference that truly can’t be measured.
We are so grateful for all that you do—our school simply wouldn’t be the same without you. Thank you for being such an important part of our WRJH family!

WRJH Students vs. Staff Game = HUGE SUCCESS! 🏀
Our students and staff hit the court for an exciting matchup—and let’s just say… the teachers definitely got their workout in!
In the end, the students came out on top!
Now… the exact score might still be up for debate (we’ve heard everything from 70-58 to 54-43 to 68-49), but one thing is for sure—the students outworked the staff!
Thank you to PTO who came out to support—this was not only a great game, but also a great fundraiser!
Already looking forward to the rematch…

Our 8th grade students recently brought literature to life with a visit to the famous Outsiders House after finishing The Outsiders!
Seeing the real-life home that inspired the story made the experience even more meaningful—students were amazed at how closely it matched the book. It was an unforgettable way to connect with the characters and setting they had just read about.
A great day of learning beyond the classroom!

Coding + Creativity in Action! 🤖
Students in Mrs. Higgins recently built and coded their own robots and then put them to the test with a fun game of robot freeze tag!
This hands-on activity challenged students to think like engineers and programmers while learning how coding controls movement and behavior. Watching their creations come to life made the lesson even more exciting!
Great job to our future engineers and innovators!

Mr. Nadal's science classes have been learning about light waves in a hands-on way! Using lasers and flashlights, students explored the differences between reflection, refraction, absorption, and transmission of light.
Of course, science sometimes requires a few sacrifices… and in this case, it was a few very brave gummy bears!
Through fun experiments and a little creativity, students were able to see these concepts come to life right before their eyes. Learning is always better when it’s interactive!
