Students completed hands-on activities that simulated tasks performed by astronauts before meeting with a NASA representative from Space Center Houston to learn more about space exploration!
Burkburnett High School Health Science and work program students welcomed guest speaker Katelyn Bashford, who shared insights from her careers as a NICU nurse, forensic nurse, and local realtor. Students in Ms. DeLacy and Coach Cely’s classes learned about her roles and participated in a question-and-answer session about her career experiences.
We are committed to career readiness!
The Dawgs Drone Team earned 2nd Place in their first RECF Aerial Drone Competition tournament, won the Pit Decoration/Costume Contest, and brought home the All-Around Champion Award, which qualifies the team for the South-Central Regional meet in April. They will be competing against teams from seven different states!
Teams are evaluated across four mission areas: Teamwork, Autonomous Flight, Piloting, and Communications. Teams must demonstrate strong performance in competition, flight skills, team interviews, engineering notebooks, and sportsmanship.
They had to be in the top 50% of qualification matches, in the top 50% of skills rankings (autonomous flight and piloting), perform at or near the top of the team interview and communications/notebook rubrics and display exemplary sportsmanship, conduct and a student-centered approach.
