In Civics class, students were introduced to the Story of Civic Self, reviewed artifacts of their learning, built their Story of Civic Self, and (optionally) shared their Stories with their classmates. The class was full of powerful stories today! Students shared their "Story of Self," reflecting on their values and experiences to better understand leadership and civic engagement. It was inspiring to see them connect personal stories to making a difference in their communities! 💬🌍 #CivicsClass #StoryOfSelf #Leadership #StudentVoices #DKP #WildcatPride #AcushnetSchools #FMS #BetterTogether #YouMatter #WildcatLearningTour #TwoSchoolsOneDistrict @DKPHarvard

Our students had a blast with the bath bomb experiment in OpenSciEd today! They explored chemical reactions, observing fizzing and color changes, all while learning about matter and energy. Hands-on science in action! 🧪✨ #openscied @OpenSciEd @one8alhub @MASchoolsK12 @MAScienceEdu @MAscienceteach @NSTA #WildcatPride #AcushnetSchools #FMS #BetterTogether #YouMatter #WildcatLearningTour #TwoSchoolsOneDistrict
