🦸‍♂️💥 NOT ALL HEROES WEAR CAPES… SOME MAKE SUPER CHOICES! 💥🦸‍♀️

❤️🐾 It's Red Ribbon Week at SDMS! 🐾❤️

This year's theme is "BE A HERO, LIVE DRUG FREE!" 💪🚫

Being a hero isn't about having superpowers. It's about having the courage to make smart choices, stand up for what's right, and encourage others to do the same!

Our Bulldogs have the power to make a difference, one positive choice at a time! 💙

Let's show everyone that BULLDOGS ARE SUPERHEROES! 🐾⚡

Today 7th grade students on the Gecko team ended their microbiome unit with a fecal dissection lab. In the lab they examined a play dough fecal sample to determine the content of different types of bacteria that were represented by beads. After clean-up they analyzed their data to determine the overall health of the microbiome of that particular sample. 👩‍🔬🧑‍🔬🔬
