HAIR, HAIR, HAIR, EVERYWHERE

Submitted by shelley.heaton on

Once again, Ms. Hartvigsen's Class had another out-of-this-world lab.

Her Medical Forensic Classes were able to do a lab where they compared different types of hair.

There was any, and every, type of hair that you could imagine in that room.  Students had fun comparing animal hair with human hair.  They also made casts of hair to see the cuticle in the hair. 

Both can be used in an investigation to exclude suspects. 

WHAT A GREAT WAY TO LEARN!

Who knew hair could be so exciting?!

Branding For The Win!

Submitted by amy.ewell on

Our ALC and NeboCAPS students were privileged to have Brian Halley, the Director of Right Think Branding, speak to them about the basics of great branding and design practices.  Brian says, "Good design makes me happy. I submit that it makes everyone happy. It makes food taste better, it makes your drive to work better, it makes grocery shopping better, the list goes on and on. I ask as many as will hear, to join me in taking up arms in the crusade of good branding and good design so that all of us will be able to live in a happier world!"

PIG EYE DISSECTION

Submitted by shelley.heaton on

Ms. Hartvigsen always has something interesting going on. She did not disappoint this week.

The Advanced Health Science class had quite the experience last week dissecting pig eyes.  The students did a great job with their dissections, and they learned so much.

 Thank you, Ms. Hartvigsen, for this hands-on experience you provided. and Thank you to Mr. Blake for coming to help her with this lab.

ALC WELCOMES PHS STUDENTS

Submitted by shelley.heaton on

We love it when schools bring their students over to the ALC to learn about our Programs. It is always fun to see new students and always fun to talk about all of the opportunities the ALC has to offer.

The ALC welcomed PHS students.  They were given tours and had the time to ask and have questions answered. 

Nebo high schools are beginning the registration process now. Students that are interested in attending for the fall of 2021 can talk to their high school counselors.

Thank you Mr. Blake for arranging for the students to come to tour our school.
