🎨 Berea College Student Craft Continues Ceramics Projects with BCHS Geometry Students!
This week, Berea College Student Craft Outreach made a visit to Ms. Holland's high school Geometry class for a lesson on ceramic pottery! With support from Program Director Steve Davis-Rosenbaum and a team of Student Craft Educators, students practiced applying the class's geometry lessons to the process of creating ceramic mugs, taking measurements and calculate volume, circumference, and shrinkage after they finish.
It’s one thing to learn geometry on paper, but experiences like this bring those concepts to life. Students worked with real materials, solved practical challenges, and saw firsthand how math plays a role in our everyday lives. These kinds of projects help build problem-solving skills and confidence that they'll take with them far beyond the classroom.
We are so thankful for this wonderful partnership with our neighbors right up the hill at Berea College. We couldn't be more excited to offer our students this hands-on experience, learning from experts, and applying their skills to make one-of-a-kind works of art (and math!). Thanks to their generous support, all instruction and materials are offered at no cost to students.
We can’t wait to see how these projects turn out!

Celebrating Our Juniors! 🍦
We’re proud to recognize our amazing BCHS juniors for completing their State SAT School Day exam last week! This marks the first year Kentucky juniors have taken the SAT instead of the ACT during school. Students had the opportunity to send their scores to up to four colleges or universities for free, giving them a head start on that college search, and preparing them for their upcoming senior year.
To celebrate this accomplishment, our administrative team treated juniors to a well-deserved ice cream party yesterday! Students went to town making sundaes and treats and enjoying a break in their school day.
A big thank you to Dr. Neaves, Mr. Tim Molton, Ms. Christine Knight, and Board Member Ms. Sarah Rohrer for serving up the ice cream, and to Ms. Caldwell, and all our BCHS faculty and staff for preparing and supporting our students every step of the way.
Good work Juniors, we couldn't be more proud of all your hard work! 🎉
