Honors Spanish III made calaveras this week! Calaveras are colorful, decorated skulls that symbolize life, death, and remembrance in Mexican culture. They are especially popular during Día de los Muertos (Day of the Dead), when families honor and celebrate loved ones who have passed away.



Honors Spanish classes have had a fun week with our Annual Art Recreation project and learning Bachata! Liv Weldon even taught two tennis classes in Spanish! What a fun week for Spanish speaking!










Your Unified Redbirds had the best time at Washington Community High School's Unified Halloween Dance today! 🖤🎃❤️

We’re so proud of our girls and how they represented MARS/WARS this weekend. Thank you to everyone who made this opportunity possible!


What is truth? Are you enlightened? How do you know? Students in Honors DC Humanities class created modern-day versions of Plato's Allegory of the Cave. Plato's work suggests that we are all in the cave, being fed misinformation or lies that we believe to be "truth" by puppeteers, and chained in our caves by fear. When one person escapes the cave, they realize this "truth" isn't truth at all. They are enlightened and awakened, but when they return, they are ridiculed. Are you brave enough to escape the cave? Do you trade one cave for another? Modern caves included: the pay to play sporting system, the American Dream, political parties, College Board and SAT, traditional education models, AI, the "aging gracefully" lie, and Instagram culture.

"So we beat on, boats against the current, borne back ceaselessly into the past." -F. Scott Fitzgerald. Students in Honors DC Senior English celebrated the end of the great American classic, The Great Gatsby, with a good ole "Homegoing" for a few of their beloved characters.
