One of our students, Jace Benzing, was recently featured in a local news publication related to his coffee roasting business. Read all about his determination and the success of his business. 

I did a powerpoint presentation on the Israel-Hamas War from Oct 7 2023-today (ongoing). It represents my exploration into the history of the problem and the nature of the struggle between Israel and Hamas/Palestine. It was a journey of seeking understanding of the conflict that has been going on for more than a century and remains unresolved.

My project for Physical Education was to create a calculator to help figure out your basal metabolic rate and total daily energy expenditure. I researched algorithms to figure out fat and muscle mass from simple body measurements like waist circumference, and used them to create a calculator for figuring out your basal metabolic rate.

As it only needs simple measurements and uses predictions to find your fat and muscle mass, it's a lot easier to use than most calculators while providing (at least) a very good ballpark! The final calculator uses multiple algorithms, and shows you each result independently, so you can assess which results are likely to be the most accurate.

Many of the selected algorithms for this calculator are in use today by researchers and nutritionists, with lots of independent studies analyzing and comparing their accuracy.

Eunien undertook the design of four pieces of pottery in Huashijie Pro (app for sketching, painting, and drawing ), which were later transferred onto coasters using thermal transfer printing technology. Each coaster depicts a unique story related to Inanna, the Mesopotamian goddess of love and the queen of heaven. The designs of each pair of coasters are distinctly different and portray various aspects and characteristics of this ancient deity.
