Autumn at the high school is an exciting time! From Friday night football kick offs 🏈 to Tuesday morning Biology unit kick offs! 🍁 Mrs. Horn's Biology & Biology Honors classes kicked off their Photosynthesis unit today learning about the role of plant structures in converting sunlight’s energy into glucose. We also tied in fall leaf color change and how the presence of different pigments lead to a variety of fall colors, indicating that trees are adapting for winter.
