Advanced Science and Anatomy students traveled to NIU, where they engaged in an immersive Anatomy short course. Delving into the intricacies of the human body, students were afforded the unique opportunity to interact first hand with bones, anatomical models, cutting-edge anatomage tables, and cadavers. Following a dynamic morning session in the laboratory, students transitioned into a collegiate-level practicum, further enhancing their understanding and practical skills in the field. Thank you to the NIU staff and Mrs Engelbarts for offering this unique learning opportunity to AFC students!
Baseball venue update! (yes, we are still playing)
Congratulations to our March Students of the Month!
