Mrs. Entwistle & Mr. Bard's third-grade classes combined their knowledge of animal adaptations with coding to simulate an owl's keen eyesight. The project involved utilizing the light sensor feature of Microbits – pocket-sized programmable computers – to simulate the behavior of an owl's eye. As darkness descended upon the classroom, the LED lights embedded within the Microbits would dynamically expand, mimicking the owl's ability to dilate its pupils in low-light conditions to hunt for their food. Mrs. Blackwell assisted the students with their programs to help them adjust parameters to ensure a seamless transition between light and dark environments, much like the adaptation observed in owls.

Jack Baylis served as the Agriculture teacher and FFA advisor at Mount Markham High School for many years, retiring in 1995. Sadly, Mr. Baylis passed away in January of 2023. As a tribute to his time at Mount Markham, Mr. Baylis’s tools and equipment were donated to Mount Markham FFA by Mrs. Judy Baylis, Jack’s wife. On Wednesday, January 31, Mrs. Baylis came into the high school classroom to meet with students. Students Zach Congden, Eli Assisi, Ryan Treen and Owen Allen showed Mrs. Baylis the progress made in organizing and installing equipment in the shop. Mike Brown, a former student of Jack’s, helped facilitate getting the equipment to the high school. Mike has been a strong supporter of Mount Markham FFA since the chapter rechartered in 2017.
