🔍 Forensic Science students were hard at work documenting and classifying crime scene evidence this morning! 🕵️‍♀️ Students designed and built incredibly intricate shoebox crime scenes. Today, they were reviewing the crime scene evidence in each scene and categorizing this evidence into direct and circumstantial evidence. 📋 High five to Mr. James Wyatt for designing awesome instructional experiences for this brand new class! 🙌 WE ARE RED DEVILS!

Reading—and encouraging our kids to read—is one of the most important things we can do to help our children be strong students! 📚 ➡️ Share a picture in the comments of: * What you're reading with your kids this week. * What your kids are reading. * What you're reading this week. #RankinReads

Fifth graders launched a new unit of study in Reading class with Mrs. Gerick today: The Renaissance! 🖌️🖼️ Students were reading texts about the Renaissance period and making inferences about what life must have been like then. Great job, Mrs. Gerick, helping your students make inferences and use evidence to support their understanding! 🙌

Last week, administrators from Rankin ISD enjoyed a visit from Dr. Kim Alexander, CEO of Collegiate Edu-Nation (CEN) and former Superintendent of Roscoe Collegiate ISD. CEN’s aim is to break the cycle of generational poverty in rural America and promote multi-generational prosperity. They do this by fostering a college and career focus, promoting a culture of educational attainment (degrees and industry certifications), and transforming educational delivery systems. 🏫 Dr. Alexander loved hearing about the incredible work going on in Rankin ISD to help students graduate with college hours, associate degrees, and industry certifications. 👩‍🎓👨‍🎓 We truly are “Building a better world one student at a time!” 🙌
