Coach Howell’s Forensics class completed a Latent fingerprint lab last week. Students learned humans leave behind fingerprints almost every time they touch something even if they can’t see them. Latent prints are made by residue present on finger ridges. Students practiced dusting for prints by coating them with powder and “lifting“ them from the object to compare to other prints.

Ms. Walters and Mrs. Nicholas had their students conduct Argument Driven Inquiry in their physical science class. Students were asked to test, "How can you determine the strength of an acid or a base using a cabbage indicator?" When they were done, they created their white board presentations and completed a gallery walk.

Back in May, we shared a new partnership between Lumpkin County High School, Lanier Technical College, Satellite Industries, WorkSource Georgia Mountains, and Workforce Strategies Group. This partnership involving these 5 organizations was the first of its kind, and the success of the program would determine if we could provide this opportunity to more students. We are happy to announce that our six Class of 2022 students successfully completed the program and graduated on September 23rd with their 𝗚𝗮𝘀 𝗠𝗲𝘁𝗮𝗹 𝗔𝗿𝗰 𝗪𝗲𝗹𝗱𝗶𝗻𝗴 Boot Camp certificate! They are gainfully employed as welders with Satellite Industries right here in Lumpkin County. Congratulations, gentlemen! You not only set yourselves up for success, but you also paved the way for the future students of LC!

Connecting the dots and transfer of energy through photosynthesis and cellular respiration can be tricky. Ms. Westafer and Dr. Alldred understand that students need to spend time with these complex procedures and find creative ways to help students visualize the process. Plus, who doesn't want to be outside on a sunny afternoon studying science! #GoIndians
