As we navigated winter weather events, LYNX Scholars engaged with professionals who shared their unique career experiences! On February 13, acclaimed pianist and recording artist Barron Ryan delivered an inspirational, educational workshop at FHS for students prior to his evening performance at the Weinberg Center!

On February 14, LYNX scholars participated in hands-on learning with professionals at the Frederick County Fire and Rescue Services Training Facility. Then on February 19, LYNX scholars visited the National Aquarium in Baltimore for an interactive, educational workshop on aquatic animal rescue!
