Important Information


WGHS on WKYC - At a school board meeting in January, Rosie Fahey and Eileen Faulk were recognized for their second place finish in NASA Glenn Research Center’s 2018 Microgravity Expulsion from Water Challenge.  In addition to the notoriety they received from West G, they also presented their work at a National Conference in Washington D.C.  Their success was possible with the guidance and assistance of a couple of WGHS staff members, Alan Duncan and Aly Ledman.  Rosie and Eileen credit much of their accomplishments in receiving the award and recognition to these teachers.  Thank you, Alan and Aly for working with these two students to push and challenge Rosie and Eileen in this competition.  You can read about their project here and/or watch them on WKYC at 7:00 P.M. on March 12th where they will appear in a Betsy Kling segment.  Aly and Alan are also included in the piece.
