Cedar Rapids Washington High School
February
MPHS Geometry students are working on proofs - organized ways to share your thinking about whether a conjecture or hypothesis is correct. The first few days have gone really well, and some students are sharing their own conjectures in addition to thinking about the ones in the book!! Awesome critical thinking happening in Mrs. Baker and Miss Fishers's classes!

Congratulations to MPHS Student of the Week for January 30 - February 3, Taylor Gingerich! Taylor was nominated by Mrs. Schmidt, "I would like to nominate Taylor Gingerich. I had her in Plant Science and as a TA for AFNR. She was always willing to go above and beyond on assignments in class. She also was willing to do whatever needed to be done in my class when she was a TA. She would help prep for labs as well as work with students who had been gone or who needed assistance keeping caught up in class. She would even work on TA items during Hawk Block. All of these things she did with a smile on her face. She has really stepped up and makes those around her better." Great job, Taylor!
Sophie was nominated by Mrs. Zahradnek, "Sophie Sojka is such a hard worker. She tries hard in all of her classes and wants to do her best!" Congrats, Sophie!
