Something smells fishy in English II... and it's pure genius!
Ms. Middleswarth's English II students put their morphology skills to work, using prefixes, suffixes, and root words to create brand-new product names. Then they swam into the Tank to pitch their inventions "Shark Tank style" to a panel of their classmates.
From clever brand names to confident pitches, these Mustangs proved that knowing how words are built can help you build something big. No one got eaten alive, and we'd say every student came out on top of the food chain!
Would you invest? We're definitely in!

MUSTANGS IN ACTION
Students in Mr. Gallagher's AP Human Geography class put their knowledge to the test with a giant world map challenge! Each team got a massive map broken into pieces, and the race was on to be the first to put the world back together accurately.
Speed mattered, but so did knowing where every country, coastline, and continent belongs. It took teamwork, communication, and a lot of geography know-how to piece it all together.
Great work, Mustangs!
