🎶 This past weekend's Solo & Ensemble Festival at Berlin High School was truly remarkable! Students from both the high school and middle school showcased their exceptional talents and hard work. Each performance was outstanding, reflecting the dedication of our young musicians. 🎼 The BHS music department is proud to announce that 21 events will advance to the State Solo and Ensemble Festival at the University of Wisconsin-Oshkosh at the end of April! Additionally, two students from BMS will also be representing us at the State level, Sarah Majeske and Cora Sawallish! 🎵 We extend our heartfelt gratitude to the staff, parents, and community volunteers whose support was instrumental in making the festival a success.

Food service students had the opportunity to create and torch their own crème brûlée as part of their unit on eggs! 🔥🥚 🍳 They prepared a variety of dishes, including quiche, soufflé, and crepes. The students also demonstrated their egg-cooking skills by successfully making hard-cooked, over-easy, sunny-side-up, poached, and scrambled eggs. Great job, class!

🍲 We smell delicious soup! 👩‍🍳 Recently, in Mrs. Daubner's Food for Living Classes, students recently made a tasty dish called Minestrone (Italian Vegetable Soup)! They discovered that this meal is not only delicious but also very healthy and budget-friendly to prepare. 🔪 This unit focused on safety and sanitation, and the lab was a great opportunity for students to practice important skills like knife safety and cutting techniques. Everyone did an amazing job, staying safe while cooking, and the soup turned out delicious!

🎉 Celebrating Public Schools Week! 📚 Public Schools Week is an exciting annual celebration that shines a spotlight on the incredible achievements happening every day in our public schools!

❤️ Happy Heart Month! We are excited to share that the Berlin Area School District is officially recertified as a Heart Safe School! ❤️ Thanks to our partnership with Project ADAM (Automated Defibrillators in Adam’s Memory), we have successfully renewed our Heart Safe School status. This amazing program, run by Children’s Wisconsin and the Herma Heart Institute, is dedicated to preventing sudden cardiac death through a comprehensive plan. Here’s what we’re doing: • Placing AEDs (Automated External Defibrillators) in our school buildings. • Forming a cardiac emergency response team. • Conducting AED drills to prepare for emergencies. • Educating our staff on how to recognize warning signs and implement prevention strategies. AEDs are easy to use and allow anyone, even those without medical training, to provide quick defibrillation to individuals of all ages. ❤️ By empowering our schools and communities, Project ADAM not only saves lives but also boosts our readiness for sudden cardiac arrest situations. This initiative is a tribute to Adam Lemel, a 17-year-old who sadly lost his life while playing basketball at school. Project ADAM is making a difference in schools across the nation, reinforcing the cardiac chain of survival. We extend our sincere appreciation to ThedaCare Orthopedics for their continuous support of our CPR/AED education program! ❤️ Let’s celebrate Heart Month together and continue to promote heart health and safety in our school community!
