🔬🧬 AP Research student, Charlotte Sapp, completed lab research at @uflorida last week, examining muscle tissue associated with Duchenne muscular dystrophy. Inspired by her brother’s diagnosis of Duchenne’s, her work utilized histology and immunofluorescence imaging to study canine heart muscle samples, contributing to a deeper understanding of neuromuscular disease at the cellular level. What a wonderful opportunity — we are so proud of you! 💚
Happy 100th Day of School! Wiser, and oh so much older! 👵👴💯

📚✨ Testimonial: Crusader Book Club is celebrating 16 years! This year, students in grades 2–5 returned to the classics with The Chronicles of Narnia by C.S. Lewis. In this voluntary club, readers explore each book, complete a worksheet, and gather with friends to share their thinking and discoveries. For many Crusader families, the Crusader Book Club has become a treasured tradition. One parent recently shared: “I am so thrilled to see my son’s enjoyment of book club. He isn’t as much of a reader as his sister so I wasn’t sure if he would like it. He just loves diving into Narnia.... and is loving the discussion! He likes talking about the excitement (boys love a battle scene!), depth, and symbolism in these great books...and always looking for Aslan. It is amazing to watch!!” Special thanks to leader Michelle Trotter, and to everyone who helps to make this club possible! 💚📖

Snow day in Florida! ❄️
🌾🐄 A Field Trip to @dakindairyfarms Our Environmental Science students visited Dakin Dairy Farms to learn about Florida agriculture and dairy production. They toured the farm and saw how milk is bottled before heading to local grocery stores. And of course no visit would be complete without tasting fresh chocolate milk straight from the farm and cuddling the sweetest baby calves! 🤍🐮 (the little dark brown calf pictured on its own is just 3 days old!) How amazing is that? 🐮🤎
🧬🔬Today, Ms. Brown’s Anatomy & Physiology students wrapped up their unit on the eye with a special visit from our high school principal. Mr. Mortimer shared about his personal journey with Type 1 diabetes, and the affects that can have on the human eye. Grateful for leaders who teach through both knowledge and testimony!
