Physics has started with a bang in Dr. McInnis’s classroom!
Students kicked off the year with a hands-on lab focused on the importance of graphing and interpreting data. They’re already putting their scientific thinking skills to work as they learn how to collect, analyze, and make sense of their results.
We can’t wait to see what these young scientists discover this year! 🔬📊

Students in Dr. McInnis's Dual Enrollment Biology learned about the molecular structures of different molecules. Here they were seeing how the sequence of amino acids affect how the proteins fold in our body. One small change can make a big difference. Oh and of course we practiced our statistics determining if Double Stuff Oreos are really double stuffed!

Most recent investigation by Dr. McInnis' Academy of Biomedical Science Medical Intervention students was Antibiotic Resistance. 🦠 This one has always been one of the favorites because the kids get great results, but now it’s personal. #ifykyk.
🧫 Getting these students to understand when, why, and which antibiotics they should take, and advocate for themselves by asking questions has become a mission. Here Dr. McInnis' students are learning to perform an antibiotic resistance test. Two strains of bacteria 🧫 6 different antibiotics. Very different responses. #AMSTI #PLTW #marygmontgomery

A council meeting with people seated around a curved wooden desk. Flags and monitors on the wall.

Forensic Science students in Mrs. Touchstone's classes shared their research on real cases from the Innocence Project.⚖️
Each student chose an exoneree whose wrongful conviction involved eyewitness misidentification or faulty/misapplied forensic science. They researched the case, the evidence that contributed to the conviction, how long they spent wrongfully incarcerated and what ultimately helped uncover the truth.
These cases are a powerful reminder of why forensic science matters. Evidence can change a life, which means it must be collected, analyzed, interpreted, and presented with accuracy and integrity.
Forensic science isn’t just about solving crimes—it’s about getting the science right and making sure the evidence tells the truth. 🔎⚖️
So proud of the work my students put into bringing these stories to our classroom! #MGMVikings #ForensicScience #theinnocenceproject
