A group of HS^2 students took the morning to present at Magee Elementary School Science Day, giving the Elementary students some exposure to Physics and Chemistry! In the Physics sessions students looked at how light behaves by completing mirror mazes, making UV bead bracelets, making kaleidoscopes, and looking at optical illusions. The Chemistry sessions were a little bit messier focusing on reactions while making slime!
The HS^2 AP Chemistry students went back to work with the KM Explore Navigators on Wednesday to help with another science lesson on stars!
The PreAP Biology students spent class time today dissecting a rat! The students looked over the external and internal anatomy, paying close attention to the different organs and how they function within the body systems.
The HS^2 AP Chemistry students spent time last week with the KM Explore Navigators helping to teach a science lesson on moon phases!

HOST FAMILIES NEEDED!!! Several foreign exchange students need host families for the 25-26 school year at KMHS. We have a girl, Ines 16, from Argentina who loves movies, reading, travel, writing, horseback riding, cross country skiing and all things active and outdoors. According to Ines, "I consider myself an ambitious and brave person, and I believe that I can do anything that I put on my mind. Even if I struggle a lot, I know that eventually, I will achieve it. For me, both university and career goals are very important objectives in my life. At school, I have chosen biology related subjects, and have always been interested in being a biochemist or maybe a biotech." We also have a boy, Ludwig 16, who enjoys pop music, pets, reading, and sporting events. He plays basketball, soccer and tennis and loves American football. "I hope the program will make me more self-reliant, more flexible and that it will provide me with a more cosmopolitan outlook," said Ludwig. "After my year abroad, I will attend school for another 2 years to acquire a diploma which allows me to study at university. I would like to become a journalist." The students' families pay all expenses and provide their medical insurance. Our students speak English and want to learn about America. Please help them realize their dream, Contact Carrie asap for information at 414-899-3890 or schulzcarr@aol.com.
