BHE 5th Grade Students Explore Mid-America Museum Our 5th-grade students at BHE recently had the exciting opportunity to visit the Mid-America Science Museum in Hot Springs, thanks to a trip coordinated by our Magnet program. During their visit, the students engaged in hands-on activities that sparked their curiosity and love for science. One highlight of the day was attending the Tesla Show, where they learned all about the fascinating Tesla bulb and witnessed science in action. We are so proud of our students—they represented BHE wonderfully with their behavior and enthusiasm throughout the trip! This memorable experience combined fun and education, and we can’t wait to see how it inspires their learning back in the classroom. For more information, contact Allison Rowe, Middle School Magnet Coordinator at allison.rowe@hpsdistrict.org
