Minutemen Basketball this week!
Mr. Slover and Ms. Sutton took the junior high science club and a group of high school science students to a Body Worlds exhibit in Peoria today. The Body Worlds exhibit is a traveling display of medically donated human specimens for research. This is a rare treat for our students, since the exhibit does not come to our area often. All students had a great experience!

The BHHS Advanced Construction class recently partnered with the Bunker Hill Public Library in refurbishing the library bike rack and bench. Great job guys!
Mr. Slover and Anatomy & Physiology students recently participated in a "Special Senses Lab." Students learned about receptors and the nervous system. Students had a great time with the activities!
In engineering, students have been learning about machines. This activity has to do with changing the motion. The students built pantographs to change the scale of a drawing. The students chose their simple pictures they wanted to draw and then built the pantograph, tested it, made adjustments, and enlarged their images.
The High School Girls Basketball season began last night. Varsity came up just short in a very competitive battle against Lincolnwood-Morrisonville. JV won on a last second buzzer beater by Ashley Gerecke!
Reminder that in girls basketball they will play varsity first at 6:00, followed by JV. This is now a common format by most small schools in response to low numbers.
Yesterday the IHSA hosted a Leadership Conference for students. Mr. Haynes took 7 students to Peoria for the conference to spend time learning about leadership, positive mindset, time management, and social media.
