Wow is all I can say as we capped off our 1st #ever #enerGize & #enGage Day @GoochlandHigh! Teachers led lessons that they love & our #Bulldogs had the best day ever before Spring Break! #proudPrincipal! 🐾🐾🔥🔥💯

[Olivia Exum @SraExumGHS]

The most tired I have ever been leaving @GoochlandHigh School today, after a full day of ballet classes, and 87,000 repetitions of the Act 1 variation from La Esmeralda with our dancers! It was awesome!

Energize and Engage day at GHS! There were so many exciting hands-on activities, STEM, and engineering activities for students to select!

[Catherine Richards @CRichardsITC]

⚡️It’s been a great start to #energizeandengageday2024! From pickleball to therapy dog training to mini canvas painting & more, students were able to sign up to learn something new or interesting & teachers could share their passions, too! ❤️ @GoochlandHigh

[Olivia Exum @SraExumGHS]

Class is looking a little different today at @GoochlandHigh School!
So fun meeting new students, “meeting” famous ballerinas while stretching, teaching barre, and setting the Act 1 variation from La Esmeralda with some of our dancers!

It was Dress Like Your Work Bestie day, and the World Languages Department couldn’t decide on besties, so we ALL came as Mr. Reyes! 🤣🤩
I am so thankful for our little familia, and so glad he joined us this year! ❤️

Student group: *struggling to make project component work*
.
Me: *suggests fix for all components of the problem that fits perfectly within the context of the discussion they’ve just shared with me.*

Student, grimacing at group: “I mean… that actually not a terrible idea…”

It was such a privilege to share about what we’re doing with Spanish and CTE @glndschools!

[Dr. Jeremy Raley @DrJRaley]

Excellence in action @glndschools! @SraExumGHS had our guests focused in on the work she is doing to provide our Bulldogs with opportunities to use conversational Spanish in the workplace. Thank you for the leadership, passion, & energy you provide for your students!

Workplace Spanish students figured out that our construction verb “medir” works in our next career context, Culinary Arts and Hospitality! Our visitor helped students medir agua y arroz! We even math-ed a little!

@HCPSSnow @WildcatsDR This is so cool. Looking forward to borrowing this idea during AP’s post-Franco divorce debate!

@GoochlandHigh Spanish for the Workplace students learned so much from Mr. Cutchins @BooneHomes, AND met a crew! #Authentic environment, #handson learning, and the #inspirational story of a professional who started out like them. Gracias, @DrJRaley @WatsonBwatson @BooneHomes

[Dr. Jeremy Raley @DrJRaley]

Talk about authentic learning....students in our @GoochlandHigh Spanish in the Workplace class were hosted by @BooneHomes to practice their vocabulary during tours of their construction site in Goochland. Our student's skills became #stronGer today! @WatsonBwatson @SraExumGHS
