Biology Classes take Field Trip to Carnegie Science Center
BDHS Biology students took an end-of-quarter trip to the Carnegie Science Center in Pittsburgh on October 14. At the center, students participated in live inquiry based biology demonstrations including DNA extraction from pea plants, microscope investigations, and frog dissection and surgery. Students were also able to explore heart rate and apply sports to science through SportsWorks exhibits. They gave thought to the mysteries of the unseen world during an iMax movie presentation, and then had opportunity to interact with robotics.
Student assist Kindergarten class in Pilots and Co-Pilots Program
B.D.H.S. students are participating in the Pilots and Co-Pilots program hosted by Center McMechen grade school. On the last Monday of every month, Donahue students go to Center McMechen to read a fiction or nonfiction story to the kindergarteners. Each Donahue student becomes a group leader while reading the story, asking questions, and becoming a mentor to the children. The program will continue through the rest of the school year, ending with a pinning ceremony in May, where the Donahue students will pin pilot wings onto each child.
B.D. students participating in the program include: Taylor Koontz, Cheyanne Reinbeau, Hanna Little, Adrian Whorton, Abbey Mele, Taylor Straughn, Logan Ingram, Jennifer Richmond, Robert Chesonis, and Brek Dimmick.
