🧡🖤 Big leadership vibes at Coy Middle School! 🧡🖤
6th-grader Carter Kehoe had the unique opportunity to step into the role of Coy Principal for a period! 🎓📋 Carter earned this exciting experience by "purchasing" it through the Coy PBIS store—an awesome way to reward positive behavior.
While "running the school," Carter got to team up with Assistant Principal Sigmon to see what it's like to be a leader at Coy. We're so impressed by his enthusiasm and leadership skills. Way to go, Carter! 👏 #PBISInAction #CoyPride #OneDistrictOneMissionOneCreek

🧠🔬 Hands-On Learning in Medical Detectives!
Mrs. Bisignani's Medical Detectives students explored the anatomy of the brain by dissecting a sheep brain! 🐑 Students labeled key regions, learned about their functions, and examined the brain from different perspectives, including a cross-sectional view after cutting through the corpus callosum.
What an amazing way to bring science to life! 👩🔬👨🔬 #STEMinAction #FutureScientists #OneDistrictOneMissionOneCreek 🧡🖤

Beavercreek City Schools is proud to support our military heroes!
Recently, Coy Principal Andrea Ferguson had the incredible opportunity to join Lt. Colonel John Smith, Coy's science teacher, at the 445th Airlift Wing's Employer Appreciation Day.
This full-day event showcased our brave servicemembers in action, featuring M-4 demonstrations, security forces operations, and even a C-17 flight experience! ✈️ Lt. Colonel Smith, who has dedicated an impressive 37 years to the Air Force, continues to serve both our country and our students. His invitation provided a valuable glimpse into the lives of our citizen soldiers.
Thank you, Lt. Colonel Smith, for your outstanding service in the classroom and uniform. We are honored to have you as part of our Creek family! 🧡🖤

Students in ⚕️ Medical Detectives have been working on taking vital signs. 🩺 Nurses Ms. Kathleen Grimm and Ms. Latisha Newport visited the classes in Coy and Ankeney to share the vital signs they take in the clinic and the importance of HIPAA. Students then learned and practiced how to take blood pressure, pulse 💓, temperature, respiratory rate, and blood oxygen levels. Some of the vital signs they were able to take several ways! Amazing!
Fact Friday!
