🌸🔬 Exploring the Wonders of Plant Reproduction! 🔬🌸
Mr. Pagawisan's Advanced Biology class took a deep dive into the world of botany as they dissected flowers to observe and identify their reproductive organs! 🌿✨ Students carefully examined each part, from the stamen to the pistil, gaining hands-on experience in understanding plant reproduction.
But the excitement didn’t stop there! They also placed pollen grains under the microscope for a close-up view, revealing the intricate details of these tiny yet essential structures. 🧐🌿
Learning is always more exciting when you can see science in action! Great job, young biologists! 👏🔬

🌱 Exploring Transpiration in Mr. Pagawisan’s Advanced Biology Class! 🔬
The Advanced Biology students had a hands-on learning experience with a Celery Transpiration Experiment! 🥬💧 They observed how water moves through a plant’s vascular system using a solution of water and methylene blue.
After letting the celery stalk sit in the solution for a day, they noticed the leaves changed color 🌿🔵—a clear sign of water movement! Under the microscope 🔬, they identified key vascular tissues like the xylem and phloem, as well as ground tissues such as parenchyma and collenchyma.
By dissecting the celery, they traced the vascular bundle where the liquid traveled. They even observed open stomata on the leaves 🍃—proof of transpiration in action!

🌱🔬 Building Life from the Ground Up! 🔬🌱
Mr. Pagawisan's Sophomore Biology classes took teamwork and scientific understanding to the next level with their Biological Towers activity! 🏗️✨ Using a rubber band contraption with tied yarns, students had to capture and carefully stack beakers labeled with the Levels of Organization of Life—from Atom all the way to Biosphere! 🌎🔬
This hands-on challenge tested not just their biology knowledge but also their communication and coordination. Watching them strategize, problem-solve, and celebrate each successful stack was a sight to see! 🎉
Way to go, young scientists! Keep building your knowledge—one level at a time! 🧪👏
Don't forget that tonight is Parent Teacher Conferences at DCHS and across Glendive Public Schools! Our teachers will be at the schools until 8 pm to visit with parents and guardians regarding student progress. We hope to see as many people as possible!

DCHS Juniors recently attended a financial literacy event held at DCHS which was a hands-on Reality Fair where they explored future financial responsibilities and how that is connected to career choices. Students were assigned careers with varied earning power and then had to budget monthly expenses such as mortgages and rent, auto payments, insurance, groceries and other various lifestyle choices. Students also participated in team building exercises as well as listened to speakers discussing investments, savings, debt, credit, entrepreneurship and apprenticeships.
Thank you to Sara Engle at MT Dept of Labor for coordinating this event as well as the local businesses and individuals who volunteered time to help at the Reality Fair, lead team building exercises, and serve as guest speakers.
