Students in Mr. Taylor’s Anatomy class put their knowledge to work by building models of the layers of the skin using Play Doh and Wikki Stix. Using the information from their notes, students had to construct, label, and explain the different components in their models.

We love seeing our students get creative while demonstrating their understanding in meaningful ways!

Today, students in Dr. Schwertfeger’s English II class put a creative spin on literary analysis! Students created abstract paintings that visually represented the mood and tone from a passage they selected from the current text they are studying. Students were also asked to provide a written explanation connecting their artistic choices with text evidence to support their reasoning.

We loved seeing our students demonstrate understanding in creative ways while making connections between art, literature, and critical thinking!

We are ready for the annual student tailgate tomorrow evening! Thanks to BFS Insurance for sponsoring this event for our students this year!

🐍🏈 COBRA TAILGATE READY! 🌭 BFS Insurance Group’s Director of Personal Lines, Josh Medvecky, and Risk Advisor, Clifton Smith, made a pit stop at Kirkwood High School to help get the student tailgate stocked for the big game against Kenwood High School!

We brought the important stuff... hot dogs, buns, chips, and plenty of water, because you can’t cheer on the Cobras on an empty stomach! 🌭🐍 And a BIG shoutout to Kirkwood senior Ethan Fay for meeting Josh and Clifton and helping unload everything! Thanks for the muscle, Ethan! 💪👏

We love getting out in our community and supporting our local students. Now fire up the grill, fill those stands, and LET’S GO COBRAS! 🐍🏈

From the music to the movement, we can’t wait to see the show continue to come together throughout the season.
