Students in Foods III made fettuccine alfredo with chicken. They sauteed the chicken breast pieces in olive oil and seasoning. The homemade sauce was made from heavy cream, minced garlic, butter, asiago, and parmesan cheese. Students grated their own cheese. They found out how delicious a homemade sauce can be!

Mr. Roedl's PE students tried the shuttle run today. In the run, the students start at the middle of two points, run to one end, run to the opposite side, and then run back to the center. The students try to better their time each run. The shuttle run measures the students' speed, agility, and cardiovascular endurance. These students were quick in today's run!

Cumberland High School’s Foods III class has constructed two gingerbread houses to showcase this year at Toledo’s Christmas events. Students worked in pairs to design their structure. They made the gingerbread dough and baked it. The houses were assembled with royal icing, then decorated with buttercream frosting. The students selected their theme and utilized candy and other food items to make their house unique. The Fortnite Nutcracker House was made by Logan Aaron and Peyton Groves. The Rose Quartz Cottage was made by Cameron Robbins and Shelby Schumacher.
CHS staff and students voted for their favorite gingerbread house, and the winner was The Rose Quartz Cottage!

Ms. McCown’s Transition to Quantitative Literacy and Statistics students took math to new heights this week! Their mission: Determine how many rubber bands Barbie would need to safely bungee jump from the high school gym balcony.

Students conducted test jumps on Tuesday using 2–6 rubber bands, recorded Barbie’s fall distance, and built scatter plots to analyze their data. They then used linear regression equations to predict the perfect number of rubber bands for a 400 cm drop.

On Thursday, it was time for the real test, and thanks to their calculations, Barbie survived the jump!
