7th Grade Social Studies in action! Students dove into the Age of Reform and explored the role of the Texas Railroad Commission to understand how it shaped Texas government during the Progressive Era. With guidance from the amazing Coach Rupp, the class rotated through five interactive stations, working in groups to analyze information, answer questions, and connect how reform efforts impacted the state then—and how those decisions still influence Texas today. Great teamwork, critical thinking, and engagement from our future leaders! #ProgressiveEra #TexasHistory #7thGradeSuccess

This week at ECJH!

Our 7th graders dove into Earth science this week as they explored the movement of tectonic plates with Mrs. Parnell! Students modeled different types of plate boundaries—convergent, divergent, and transform—to see firsthand how our planet’s surface is constantly changing. The best part? They created edible models to demonstrate their learning… and then enjoyed a tasty reward for their hard work! Hands-on learning + creativity + a little science you can eat = a lesson they won’t forget! #STEMinAction #7thGradeScience #HandsOnLearning #FutureScientists
