ACHS students learning responsibility by caring for class pets in Mrs. Pasquinelli's English class. The class has two guine pigs: Danny DeVito and Winnie Pig and a sulcata tortoise named Timmy. Students care for the pets daily and really love their interactions.
After school SOAR Sewing class, put together hot pad/pot holders.
How neat!
Preschool rallied up, and combined their golden tickets to purchase a classroom Root Beer Float party! Nice, teamwork, pre-K!
ACHS English students explore a different kind of seating arrangement in Mrs. Pasquinelli's class. Thanks to a grant, the class received a conference table and chairs (and previously stand-up desks) to learn in more collaborative seating style. Students even had an assignment of following directions to put together their own chairs.

Last Friday, students at ACHS participated in a school-wide community meal...and even cooked some themselves! Students in Mrs. Pasquinelli's group took a cooking class and cooked two kinds of soup. Some students chose not to cook and instead participated in wood burning and mindful coloring pages.

The week of February 26th - March 3rd at ACHS is Bring Change to Mind week to cultivate connection and support for mental health.
On March 10, the Arapaho Charter High School's Bring Change to Mind Club is sponsoring a Healthy Minds Carnival. Bring Change to Mind is a nonprofit organization dedicated to encouraging dialogue about mental health and to raising awareness, understanding, and empathy. Although this is a national organization, our high school club is the first and only one in Wyoming at this time. School clubs are encouraged and guided to create safe spaces for teens to talk about mental health and to offer resources for mental health connections.
The Healthy Minds Carnival was made possible by a grant from Donors Choose. Club members from Bring Change To Mind will be hosting the event and will offer carnival games such as ring toss, sack races, egg and spoon races, milk can toss, cornhole, duck pond, and so many others. There will also be a tricycle obstacle course, football throw, face painting, and a basketball free throw contest. There is a bounce house as well as cotton candy and popcorn...and LOTS of PRIZES! And the best part is it is all FREE thanks to our Donors Choose grant! The BC2M Club wants to offer some fun activities to help the kiddos mental health during these longggggg winter months that seem to never end. :) We are hopeful it will be a success so we can make it an annual activity and invite the community, as well.
For more information about Bring Change To Mind, please visit https://bringchange2mind.org/
If anyone has any questions, please contact the sponsors, Patrick and Heather Pasquinelli, at the high school.
