The Howland High School Drone Team will host a “Cruise-In” fundraiser on Saturday, May 2 as they prepare for national competition in Detroit on May 13–14.

Students are creating a themed video for the national event that connects the stages of drone development (design, manufacture, testing and racing) with how vehicle owners restore, maintain, and improve their cars. During the Cruise-In, students plan to interview vehicle owners and capture aerial footage using a DJI camera drone.

The full Robotics program will support the event with FIRST Robotics robot demonstrations, interactive robot games, and a concessions stand.

Our CCP students recently took part in a hands-on lab focused on fish anatomy. They learned how to filet fish and completed a dissection activity, identifying internal anatomy. This lesson gave them a closer look at structure and function through real-world application!

The Howland Prep Bowl team finished 18th out of 64 teams at the state tournament, going 5-4. A great experience and strong finish! 🧠

Congrats to Sophia McGarrity and Charity Plant! The Howland FCCLA members attended the YSU Community Engagement Symposium and came home with an award. Great work representing HHS!

Big congratulations to Howland High School student Vincent Weeks 👏

Vincent earned a national award from the Office of Naval Research for his project studying how temperature affects golf ball compression.

For his project, he tested three different brands of Callaway golf balls. After letting the balls sit in various temperatures for three hours, he applied 200 pounds of force to measure how they reacted. His findings showed that temperature plays a key role in performance. Higher compression golf balls tended to perform better in colder temperatures, while lower compression balls were better suited for warmer conditions.

Science + real-world application = pretty impressive work… and now there’s no excuse for a bad golf score ⛳️📊

Students in Mrs. Stevens’ and Mrs. Polk’s classes recently teamed up for a hands-on project. Mrs. Polk’s students learned and performed a nursery rhyme in Spanish, while students in Mrs. Stevens’ class created interactive sensory activities to go along with the nursery rhymes. The project gave students a chance to connect what they’re learning in the classroom while working together and learning from each other!

Culinary students are gaining real-world experience through VR! Students in Mrs. Graf’s class are using virtual reality to build career skills as part of their 12-point credentials.
