Next week BRHS will be celebrating kindness with a spirit week! 🐾💙💛🐾

Let's take some time this November to spread some kindness and thanks to our wonderful staff members at Birch Run!
Last year, 334 thank-yous were delivered to MGMS Staff members. This year, we’ve decided to open it up district-wide!
These thank-yous will be delivered to staff over the month of November. Please take some time throughout the month to spread some positivity and give thanks to our wonderful staff!

Today was the final day of the food drive & this community came together to really amp up the competition! Here are the final counts for the day!
Monday, I will have the math teachers check my calculations for the food equivalency formula from the food bank & will let everyone know what our number is for the WNEM Competition with the other school districts.
Thank you, Birch Run for pitching in and making a difference in your community! The food and monetary donations collected will be going to local families in our school district who need help getting through the holidays. You effort has a real impact on our Panther family!

Learning by osmosis…
For real this time! Mr. Moliterno’s Biology Classes did labs this week where they observed the process of cell transport. The eggs were soaked in vinegar overnight to dissolve their shells to make them permeable. The second day, they soaked the eggs in 2 solutions- one syrup and one water to see how the syrup solution drew water out of the egg and the opposite for the egg that sat in water overnight. This way, the students could observe the changes in the eggs by measuring the mass and circumference before and after they soaked in the solution. Mr. Moliterno is helping students see how these microscopic processes like cell transport are happening every day in real life!
🐾💙💛🐾

The match begins at 5:00 PM.
