At this month’s school board meeting, students from Graham High School who recently traveled to Richmond, Virginia to participate in the Model General Assembly Program were recognized. Since 1871, this program has provided students with a unique opportunity to gain a deeper understanding of the democratic process, while strengthening their communication, critical thinking, and leadership skills. It also inspires a lasting commitment to public service and meaningful civic engagement. We are proud of these students for representing their school and community with distinction. The students were led by Mr. Lee Brown and Mr. Matthew Dixon.
Mrs. Bohon's seventh-grade reading classes at GMS completed a novel study of “The Coffin Quilt" by Ann Rinaldi. The novel is based on the Hatfield and McCoy feud from the 1800s. Students completed a final project by writing essays comparing themes, character traits, and family dynamics to their personal lives. Mrs. Heffinger provided historical context to quilting patterns, designs, and skills to Mrs. Bohon's students. They sewed small squares and observed different types of quilts. Additionally, Mrs. Heffinger collaborated with Mrs. Bohon on creating a quilt representing each student's family. Each quilt square was created by the students including a modern "family crest" symbolizing their family dynamics.
