Advanced and on-level biology teacher David Berry organizes and prepares the required materials for a science lab in his new classroom. At the beginning of the 2022-2023 school year, he moved to the F wing after not having a permanent room for three years. “The part I like the most about my classroom are the windows,” Berry said. “The windows let in all the natural light and I’m such a plant person, so I got to bring in all my plants and incorporate more life into my lessons. I think that nature has a calming effect, so having these plants in the classroom has been calming.”
