Health, Wellness, and Environmental Studies Magnet
features outdoor classroom learning by having a student vegetable
garden, greenhouse, weather station, butterfly and bird gardens. All
students attend Bio Earth Lab instruction each week focusing on science
investigations. The lab features many animals for students to observe,
study and care for. Their newest classroom is the student
kitchen/Nutrition Lab. Students have opportunities to extend their
learning by preparing food from their own gardens and incorporating
activities from other subject areas in a kitchen setting. Students are
proactive about sharing health and environmental information by hosting
their own HWES-TV news weekly. Beginning in Spring 2009, students are
enjoying the new 5th and 6th grade wing of 10 new classrooms including
an art room and art gallery.
