DCHS Events and Activities April 20-25

Congratulations to our band and choir students for their performances at the Music Festival last weekend! Great job!




Poppin’ Into Biology with Mr. Pagawisan’s Class! 🧬🫧
Today, our Advanced Biology students explored Survivorship Curves in the most hands-on way possible—using bubbles to model life expectancy!
They tested three reproductive strategies in action:
Type I: Most live long lives, with deaths increasing in old age (like humans!) 👵👴
Type II: Equal chance of survival at any age (hello, birds and lizards!) 🐍
Type III: Many die young, but the survivors go the distance (just like fish and insects!) 🐟🐜
Through every bubble blown and burst, students discovered how nature designs survival strategies to help species thrive. Science has never been so interactive (or so fun)!

DCHS Events and Activities April 6-11

Mr. Pagawisan’s Advanced Biology class has been hard at work exploring how the human body maintains balance and responds to change! 🧠💪
Students recently completed a hands-on lab focused on Human Body System Interactions and Homeostasis, where they took part in three engaging activities:
🔬 Activity 1: Pulse & Breathing Investigation
Students measured their pulse and breathing rates while sitting, standing, lying down, and after exercise—observing firsthand how the body adjusts to different conditions.
⚡ Activity 2: Stimulus & Response
Using visual, auditory, and tactile cues, students tested their reaction times by catching a falling ruler. This helped them understand how quickly the nervous system processes different types of stimuli.
🌡️ Activity 3: Homeostasis Challenge
In a fun and creative task, students worked to maintain the color, water level, and temperature of a liquid in a cup featuring Homer Simpson—for a full 5 minutes! This activity highlighted the body’s constant effort to stay balanced despite external changes.
