Adairsville High School

Digital Progress Reports: Please check PowerSchool for updated grades!

Students in Ms. Morgan’s, Mrs. Sylvester’s, and Mr. Langston’s biology classes recently conducted an enzyme testing lab as part of the Macromolecules portion of their Cells unit. Students were able to observe how different conditions can speed or slow metabolic activities by using chicken livers, some hot and cold water baths and some solutions of varying pH. Although some were hesitant at first everyone jumped into the experiment and learned that sometimes all it takes is the right catalyst to spark some excitement about science. 🐔🧬🔬

This work aligns with our district priorities by enhancing high-quality Tier 1 instruction, investing in ongoing professional learning, and creating engaging classroom experiences that support improved student attendance and achievement.

Yesterday, four of our Adairsville FFA members, Jose Graciani, Harper Lee, Dylan Kitchens, and Abigail Greger, competed in the Farm Business Management CDE at Gordon Central High School.

I'm excited to share that our team placed 2nd overall out of 15 teams, earning them a spot at the State Competition!

Additionally, Abigail Greger placed 2nd High Individual out of 60 competitors!

If you see these students in the hallways, please take a moment to congratulate them on their hard work and accomplishments! A big congratulations also goes to Mr. Joslin, who coached and prepared these students for the competition.

We are incredibly proud of this group and can't wait to see what they accomplish at State!

Go Tigers!

Several government students recently took a trip to the Bartow 9-11 Center and the Courthouse while studying local government and the judicial system with their teachers: Coach Whitaker, Coach Nelson, Coach Smith, and Mrs. Hall. The ladies at the 9-11 center shared valuable information about the workings of the system, as well as allowed the students in the control room, where they got to hear actual 9-11 calls taking place.

Superior Court Clerk Josh Biddy led them on an extensive tour of the courthouse, allowing students to see not just the courtrooms, but all the offices that work behind the scenes to serve Bartow County. The students learned more about local laws, judicial processes, jobs in the judicial system, and what roles those at the courthouse play in the day-to-day operations. The students also got the chance to see the inside of the Historic Bartow Courthouse.

Dual Enrollment Night:

Students in Lit Comp II with Ms. Spence and Ms. Schroeder recently completed a Project-Based Learning (PBL) task to conclude their study of Elie Wiesel’s memoir Night. The goal of the project was to analyze the memoir to examine its warnings about dehumanization, indifference, and the consequences of hatred. Using textual evidence, literary analysis, and visual symbolism, students developed a creative multimodal product to communicate the central theme or message from the memoir to a modern audience. Students chose their mode of communication and included an artist’s statement explaining their literary interpretation and the significance of their design choices. These were presented to the class this week.

This work supports our school STEAM initiative and goals as well as the BCSS district priorities, building on strong professional learning to provide quality Tier 1 instruction. Engaging students in the PBL process and encouraging inquiry and creativity also help support improved classroom experiences and, therefore, student attendance.

Congratulations to our AP Scholarship recipients! We are proud of your achievement. To accept your scholarship, please see Dr. Ratcliff.

Friday Night Reminder: Friday is SENIOR NIGHT at Tiger Stadium! For the safety of our students, all elementary and middle school students must be accompanied by an adult.

Friday Fun!
