In cooperation with Ag Revolution, the North Harrison CTE Agriculture Department and FFA Chapter will have an Open House event for farmers to learn about Planter Technology, MeterMax and Steering & Guidance demonstration strations. This event is on Saturday, November 16th from 9AM-2PM at the High School Agriculture Department. Lunch will be provided. Attendees may come and go during the event as they have time.
8th grade students in Mrs. Wade's science lab ignited steel wool (iron) with 9 volt batteries. They weighed their wool before burning it and after burning it. They were surprised that it weighed more after the combustion reaction occurred because the iron atoms from the steel wool combined with oxygen atoms from the air. The end result of the chemical reaction was iron oxide. The students also used this lab as an opportunity to investigate the Law of Conservation of Mass.
Last night some members of our community received a text message with political statements that contained our school logo. This message was NOT sent from anyone associated with NHCSC. It appears to be text message spam sent from a non-working number.
This is a reminder that there is NO SCHOOL for students on Tuesday, November 5th (Election Day).
