Please see the attached letter from WCJH principal regarding the upcoming NAEP assessment on January 30.
In November 2023, we had the privilege of serving at the Arkansas Foodbank located in Little Rock, AR. Many of the students who attended the November volunteer shift wanted the opportunity to give back to the Foodbank. Thank you Watson Chapel High School FCCLA members for having a heart for service in your community and surrounding areas.
Watson Chapel Cafeterias is working with KHall & Sons Produce to bring different fruits and vegetables in through the year. This is a great way to introduce students and staff to new items. This month we have Blood Oranges (also known as Raspberry Oranges). They have a deep red inside but still have that wonderful tangy orange flavor.

The Watson Chapel School District will be assessing the side roads and back roads where our buses travel on regular routes this afternoon. The primary roads are in pretty good shape. Hopefully, there will be enough melting with rising temperatures so the routes will be safe to transport our students on Thursday morning. A decision will be made by early this evening.
Thank you!

High School Happenings..
Mr. Faucette's Human Anatomy and Physiology and Honors Biology classes use advanced technology to enhance learning. In his 1st and 3rd period classes, students were given the opportunity to use the PSVR2, a virtual reality helmet for the PlayStation 5, to take their semester exam using the Human Anatomy VR software. The exam required students to demonstrate their mastery of the skeletal system by identifying the position and function of random bones as indicated by Mr. Faucette.image.pngimage.png
During Mr. Faucette's 6th period Honors Biology class, students were given an interesting project. They had to create a 3D model of a plant or animal cell using TinkerCAD software. In addition, they were required to add all the corresponding cell organelles to their models. Once the models were ready, the students presented them to the class and gave a persuasive sales pitch to convince Mr. Faucette to purchase their model over others. It was a great opportunity for the students to learn and apply the skills of a software engineer in a practical project. Great Job Mr. Faucette! #WCfamily #technology #science
