Da Vinci Junior High

Six Flags! 🥳

We became roller coaster experts so today we walked over to Patwin to share what we learned. We had a great time helping the 5th graders!

We’re so excited to bring WEB (Where Everybody Belongs) back to DaVinci next year!

Our WEB leaders have already started training and preparing to welcome our incoming 7th graders and help make the transition to middle school a positive one. From day one, our goal is to make sure every student feels seen, supported, included, and connected.

We can’t wait to see the incredible impact this group will make on our campus next year!

We're looking forward to our annual 8th grade awards! Every 8th grader will be recognized and the entire family is welcome to join. The awards start at 6pm on Monday June 8th in the Indoor Commons (IDC). Doors open at 5:30.

Save the date!

Lately in 7th grade science class, students have been tasked with building a shoebox cooler capable of withstanding heat and keeping Popsicles cool! In these photos, students are building their boxes by attaching foam, foil, and any possible insulating materials they could get their hands on.

Today the 8th graders channeled their inner Newsie to showcase their newspapers focused on the Reform Movements of the 19th Century!

Collaboration in our art class! Keep an eye out for some amazing murals coming soon!

Today, archaeologist and Anthropologist Dr. Grofe visited 7th grade world studies to describe his study of the Maya creation myth and its fascinating connections to chocolate. Students were able to access this normally college-level lecture and uncover his research in the origin of cacao and the story of the Hero Twins! They also got to enjoy some chocolate alongside, of course. Ms. Griggs loves the opportunity to have experts in their field of study share what they are passionate about with her students - unveiling pathways of future study or just deepening their interest in our current project!
