Our Geometry in Construction class had a field trip to Home Depot! The students were required to figure out area, lateral area and surface area to determine square footage and total costs of materials needed for a project. Students were divided into groups to figure out costs of the cheapest materials and the most expensive materials while interacting with employees. It was a great real life experience for our students! @mchs_geometry_in_construction

Congratulations to Aubrey Freeman for receiving a MCHS is You positive referral! She is in the leadership team with our REACH Adaptive PE Class.
