The Glendale High School Jazz Band performed at the Glendale Union High School District Jazz Clinic yesterday. Everyone got a chance to improvise a solo for professional saxophone player and jazz band director Paul Brewer. The kids did a great job!
March 27, 2022- The Glendale Conservation Society (GCS) vegetated the Rio Salado Habitat Restoration Area.

This event was the very first one planned, organized, and executed by the club's very own officers - President Lesly Castillo and Treasurer Jenny Gonzalez - and over 20 GCS members showed up on a Sunday morning to assist with the project. In the span of a few hours, the students planted over 50 desert plants and removed a variety of invasive species.

Three of Glendale's Tri-M Music Honor Society seniors completed their capstone recital March 28th. This is one component of the process these students have completed to earn the Arizona State Seal of Arts Proficiency on their high school diploma. Congratulations Juan, Sheyla and Kendra!

Integrated Science students attempted to roast marshmallows by conduction, convection, and radiation heat transfer methods. They had to use multiple scientific tools in their exploration and log their observations. By the end of class, they had to conclude which method of heat transfer was the most effective at roasting a marshmallow.
On Saturday March 19th, students from Glendale High School’s National Honor Society joined Master Gardener Deb, as well as students from Apollo High School, to rejuvenate the succulent garden in front of Glendale’s Main Public Library. We planted new succulents, vines, transplanted and removed some plants, and provided protection (from the peacocks) in the form of netting.

Team NGnerds (Jayden Widner, Dania Garduno Bustos, and Alan Lugo) participated in 2023 MATE ROV Arizona Regional on May 6. This competition is commonly known as underwater robotics. Team NGnerds bested 18 other teams and took 1st place. The team orally and with a poster presented the engineering that went into making their ROV (remotely operated vehicle) and ran two 12-min product demonstrations where the ROV had to do various tasks like retrieving a water sample and temperature probe float. This is the two consecutive years GHS has taken the top prize. Mrs. Hernandez, Mr. King and I (robotics mentors) are very proud of these students. GHS science club has been sponsoring underwater robotics teams since 2018.

Special Thanks To:

Mrs. Hernandez: She takes care of everything the team and mentors need in addition to mentoring the robotics team.
Mr. King: He mentors and cheers on these kids.
Mr. Mager and Ms. Gaur: Thanks for helping with the engineering poster.
Ms. Gaur and Ms. Patton: Thanks for getting all the paperwork straight for kids so they can attend the regional.

The Glendale band played on stage in Crowder Hall at the Fred Fox School of Music on Friday, April 28. Our students performed and rehearsed in a concert band clinic conducted by Dr. Chad Nicholson, director of bands at the University of Arizona. Junior saxophonist, Ruby Romero, performed a solo on the big podium and was given a chance to conduct the band under the direction of Dr. Nicholson. Our students also toured part of the Tucson campus and dined in the student union. Everyone had a great musical experience and explored future college options. Way to go Cardinals!

These students powered through TWO power outages, and still pulled off an amazing performance of TINK. We had the first power outage on Thursday, and another happened during the show on our Saturday Matinee once we started Act Two (luckily that one was only 5-10 minutes long). To say I am proud would be an understatement. These kids shined on that stage!
