On Friday, January 24, students across the HAPS, YMS, and BHE campuses participated in an exciting Discovery Learning Friday, part of our Magnet Program. This event allowed students to explore a wide range of creative and hands-on activities designed to spark their imaginations and build new skills. Teachers led engaging sessions in activities such as latch hook, weave looming, Jenga, diamond painting, resin jewelry making, chunky yarn blankets, Legos, and more. Students also enjoyed planting bulbs, crafting with paper, making clay sculptures, practicing origami, and even songwriting. The day was a wonderful opportunity for students to tap into their creativity, discover new interests, and work collaboratively with their peers. Thanks to Allison Rowe for supplying the photos and info! #GoBobcats #ALLIN #HopeForTheFuture
