Every month, the High School of Health Sciences recognizes students who have demonstrated leadership, community, character, academic rigor and grit. The HS^2 November students recognized are Emma S. (10) and Sophie S. (10)! Congratulations to these students!!
Today, December 11, is an asynchronous virtual day for all HS^2 classes. Students will have a required assignment in each class posted in Canvas. Completion of this assignment determines attendance for each block. All work must be submitted by 2:35pm. Please reach out to teachers directly with questions regarding assignments and expectations.
KMHS is holding regular classes today; however, the schedule is adjusted due to an extended advisory. If you have a KMHS class on Wednesday, you still need to attend. Please look on Canvas for the adjusted schedule and plan accordingly.
Attention holiday shoppers! HS^2 is hosting a book fair on 12/6-12/7 at the Barnes & Noble in Brookfield. All you need to do is shop in store or online, and HS^2 will receive a portion of the profits to spend on choice books for the English classroom bookshelves.
Simply present this bar code before checking out or enter the code on the payment page online during those two days. Vouchers will also be available in store. Be sure to check out their selection of books, music, Lego, board games, journals, and more to knock out that shopping list while helping out our HS^2 students!

HS^2 AP Psychology students recently dissected cow eyes during their Sensation and Perception unit to look at how the eye is structured.
HS^2 collected over 1300 lbs of donated items for the Waukesha County Food Pantry!
While Mr. Van Dyke's advisory took home the top spot for donating the most items, it was a school-wide success in seeing so many students and staff participating in the drive. The HS^2 walking class even took a different route one day to walk to Pick-N-Save to purchase items for donation.
If you would still like to donate for the holiday season, you can drop donations directly off at 1301 Sentry Drive!
The HS^2 Forensic Science course completed an Algor Mortis Lab this week! In the lab, the students had "Mr. Frankie" take a bath to raise his temperature to 98.6 degrees and then they measured how he cooled over 15 min.

HS^2 students finished up the vision screenings for the year at the Wales Elementary Campus!
HS^2 PreAP-Bio students spent some time as birds today studying natural selection as they "hunted" for snails!
HS^2 Students helped with the Dousman Vision Screening!
The school definitely packed in a lot of activities today on this busy Green Day! The HS^2 AP Psychology students, along with any other interested students, completed a pig brain dissection! Students were able to dissect the brain in order to visualize the anatomy that they've been studying.
Today, the KM Explore Pioneers (4th & 5th grade) started their Science Fair with the help of the HS^2 students!
The Pioneers traveled to the High School Campus where they tried out different HS^2 student-led experiments (Biology, Chemistry, and Physics) to jumpstart ideas for their own individual science fair projects and also met with their High School mentors.
Moving forward, the Pioneer and HS^2 students will have mentoring sessions to work on their projects and prepare for the science fair presentations! We cannot wait to see what the students come up with!
