The 8th Grade Science students were also successful in extracting DNA from strawberries. Some of the students are shown here showing off the results of their experiment.
A fun day "doing" science at Chilhowee!
In Science class, Mr. Smith's 7th-grade Science students had fun extracting DNA from strawberries. The students followed steps and procedures similar to those that researchers would use in a research lab. Once extracted, DNA can be used to identify people involved in crimes (forensics), help determine parentage, check for genetic defects, and for other research interests.

Thank you to the Missouri Retired Teachers Association for coming to our school today to present Ms. Vicki Pierce with a $500 check for our special education students. Ms. Pierce wrote a grant proposal last year to get specialized pens for students to record a teacher's instruction so they can replay it later to hear the information again. Our students are going to love these pens!
