🫀 Biology in Action: Heart Dissection Lab 🧬 In Biology class, students explored how substances are transported in living organisms by comparing mammals, fish, and plants. To deepen their understanding of the human body, students investigated a pig’s heart, closely examining its structures and how each part is adapted to support its function. By engaging multiple senses through hands-on learning, students were able to strengthen their understanding and make meaningful connections between structure and function—because learning truly sticks when it’s experienced, not just observed. #KASDragons #BiologyInAction #HandsOnLearning #ScienceLab

🌱 Grade 8 Community Project Exhibition 🌱 The Grade 8 Community Project gives our students the opportunity to advocate for causes they truly care about. Through this exhibition, students proudly shared their work with friends, parents, and the KAS community—showcasing how their ideas and actions led to real, meaningful change. We extend our sincere thanks to Mr. Kolas, Dr. Hsieh, and Mr. De Dios for their guidance, encouragement, and support throughout the project, helping students turn passion into impact. A special thank you as well to the PTA for their help in making this exhibition possible. We are incredibly proud of our Grade 8 students for using their voices to make a difference. 💙 #KASDragons #CommunityProject #StudentVoice #ServiceLearning #KASMiddleSchool
