Each year we ask our art students to submit a design for our holiday card. We are always amazed by the designs our students create! Violet Grace was our first place winner and Sophia Peeples was our second place winner! Violet's design will be featured on the front of our holiday card and Sophia's will be featured inside our card.
Honorable mentions were Summer Wyant's and Khloe Brogden's designs. Congratulations, ladies! Pictured left to right, Sophia Peeples and Violet Grace.

Whitney Williams from EmergeOrtho spoke to a couple of Mrs. Clayton's Biotech classes about physical therapy. She gave students valuable information about what it takes to become a physical therapist and what they do. She then showed students different mobility tests and demonstrated how she uses different equipment in her practice with multiple students. It was an awesome experience for our students!

Last Thursday, Ms. McCormick’s chemistry class had Kara Price, a guest speaker from NC State’s College of Textiles, come and talk to students about the differences between natural and synthetic fibers. They then got to perform a fiber identification burn test on several different types of fibers to try and identity whether they were natural or synthetic fibers.
