Florence High School administration team welcomed students with grade level assemblies the first week of school. The handbook was reviewed along with changes to Celebration, Reteach, and Remediation. Student goals and campus privileges were discussed. Students had a chance to ask questions and admins had the opportunity to meet and greet this year’s student body. SCIENTIFIC METHOD Mr. Wilkerson and Mr. Nance look on as Physical Science students test their hypothesis regarding this 1928 vacuum. As an introduction to the scientific method, students were asked to develop methods to test whether or not the air inside the glass was in fact being pulled out through the machine. By using a smoke bomb, students thought that we would see the smoky air coming out of the machine. The air coming out didn’t show the same color, but the odors were evident as the air exiting the vacuum was collected in a small balloon. This was on Wednesday, July 23, just outside the southeast corner of the 500 building. LINK LEADER TRAINING Florence High School welcomed 44 of their finest students this past week to attend Link Crew Training. These students, a mix of Juniors and Seniors were trained to mentor and lead the incoming Freshman Class. These Link Leaders applied for this position last spring, and their training was quite rigorous. Training took place over two days, for a total of 10 hours during which the Link Leaders prepared to welcome their incoming freshman by learning transition activities to lead the Class of 2018 from middle to high school which will take place on Friday during our Freshman Orientation.
