📚 Bringing History to Life at Fort Fisher 🏰⚔️

Our 8th Grade Cape Fear Grizzlies 🐻 visited Fort Fisher State Historic Site on Friday and got an up-close look at one of North Carolina's most important Civil War landmarks. 🏛️

Students explored artifacts in the recently renovated museum 🏺, walked the remaining earthworks to see period cannons up close 💣, and witnessed a live-action demonstration of a Civil War–era rifle.

Thanks to all families for your support 🙏—these hands-on experiences bring the history we teach to life! ✨📖

🔬✨ Afterschool STEM Adventures at Cape Fear Middle School! ✨🔬

Our afterschool program is buzzing with excitement this week! Our Grizzlies are diving into the National Inventors Hall of Fame's Circuit Sculptures project, and the results are incredible!
In this week's afterschool sessions, students have been crafting clay sculptures and learning to embed LED lights and motors to make their creations glow and spin. It's the perfect blend of art, engineering, and hands-on fun! 💡⚡

There's nothing quite like seeing our students discover how circuits work while unleashing their creativity. This is what learning looks like when kids are truly engaged!
