Congratulations to our varsity baseball coach, Mr. Ryan Blanchfield, for being named the North Bayside Coach of the Year! Coach Blanchfield's impact goes far beyond wins and championships - he is a role model, mentor, friend, and brother to the team. He has created a family that looks out for each other. When we lost our SRO Lucas Nagel this year, Coach Blanchfield brought the team together and made sure every single player and coach felt supported and heard. We are so grateful to have him as a member of our Colonel family! #ColonelTOUGH #homegrown

While studying DNA, Biology students in Mrs. Smith's class learned about how gel electrophoresis can be used to analyze DNA samples. First, they were given a crime scene where a murder had occurred. After collecting information about the suspects and their possible motives, students then used gel electrophoresis to separate 2 samples of DNA collected at the crime scene (lanes 2 & 3 in the gel) and samples of DNA from their 3 suspects (lanes 4,5 & 6). They then wrote a "report" identifying the murderer based on the analysis of the DNA evidence. #ColonelTOUGH
While studying inheritance of traits, Mrs. Smith's AP Biology students created a pedigree to display the inheritance of Huntington's disease for five generations of a family. They then analyzed DNA samples for family members to determine the pattern of inheritance displayed by Huntington's disease.
While learning about natural selection, Biology students in Mrs. Smith's class were given the challenge to design butterflies that would best camouflage in plain sight within a "habitat" in the classroom. After placing the butterflies in their habitat, AP Biology students in the next class period played the role of predators and hunted for butterflies for 5 minutes. This activity modeled evolution by natural selection - that butterflies best adapted for their habitat would survive predation and be more likely to reproduce offspring that also have that beneficial adaptation. #ColonelTOUGH
