🌳🐾 LEARNING BEYOND THE CLASSROOM! 🐾🌎

What an incredible weekend for our Starmount High School students! Our Rams enjoyed an overnight outdoor learning experience at Morrow Mountain State Park and the North Carolina Zoo with Mr. Fincannon and Ms. Trivette! 🐏

🏕️ During their adventure, students had the opportunity to:

🌳 Meet with park representatives
🔦 Participate in a flashlight scavenger hunt
🥾 Hike to Badin Lake
🔥 Cook dinner and make s’mores
🏕️ Stay overnight in heated cabins
🐾 Meet animal ambassadors
🦓 Participate in an educational workshop at the NC Zoo
🌎 Explore different areas of the Zoo
…and so much more!

Beyond the fun and adventure, this experience introduced students to exciting career opportunities in natural conservation, park enforcement, and wildlife management. Students connected classroom learning to real-world careers while building relationships and creating lasting memories.

A huge thank-you to Mr. Fincannon and Ms. Trivette for providing our students with this outstanding learning opportunity! We are proud of our Rams for continuing to learn, explore, and grow beyond the classroom.

🎭🐏 A DAY OF LEARNING AT THE TANGER CENTER!🐏🎭

Our Starmount High School Theater Arts, Honors Musical Theatre, and Show Choir students had an amazing day today visiting the Tanger Center in Greensboro!

Our students had the opportunity to learn about the many moving parts that bring live performances to the stage, including show booking, marketing, production, and the operation of a professional performing arts center. What a fantastic opportunity to see the arts from behind the scenes and explore the many career possibilities within the performing arts industry! Our students were amazing representatives of Starmount High School!

A big thank-you to the Tanger Center for sharing your knowledge and giving our students such a valuable learning experience!

And As Always.... Go Rams!
