Students participated in the Homecoming Week assembly on Friday! There were lots of games, activities, including tug-of-war, musical chairs, and more. It was a great week for school spirit!
Students in Ms. Kaminski's AP Computer Science Principles learned about the importance of writing clear and specific code by practicing with Lego builds. Each student wrote step-by-step instructions for building a tower and traded it with a classmate to see if they could replicate the build using only those written instructions. Students were able to see how vague or unclear instructions can lead to errors similarly to how a computer can only follow exactly what is written in their programming.
All are welcome to join us on Friday, November 7 at 9 a.m. at the District Office at this informal get-together to enjoy a cup of coffee with the Superintendent, Dr. Robert Schiffbauer. Connect with us and chat about topics important to you. Please RSVP to Aubrey Knight, Director of Community Relations, at (815) 521-4112 or aknight@mchs.net.
