Willets Road Detectives in Training

Willets Road meets C.S.I.! 

Under the direction of 7th science teacher Mr. Gottlieb, the Forensic Science program has begun their fingerprinting unit.  Students are learning the different classifications of fingerprints, how to take a full set of prints, and how to analyze them.  On a recent class visit students were learning how to take a full set of their own fingerprints.  Once the prints were taken, the students determined whether the individual prints fell into one of the three types of print catagories: arch, loop, or whirl.  Next, the students will be learning how to lift fingerprints off of stationary objects.
