Enter to Learn, Go Forth to Serve
LYNX Scholars are finishing the year strong engaging in many learning opportunities in April! The United States Naval Academy, Mount St. Mary's University, and Shepherd University welcomed FHS students for campus tours and sessions.
Our annual Service Day and Job Fair events at FHS connected our students with military service members, first responders, and local employers. The Frederick County Board of Elections members also educated our students about voter registration and becoming an election judge. Check out the photos in the galleries below!
Many thanks to all of our partners who help our students fulfill the FHS motto: "Enter to Learn, Go Forth to Serve" -- we appreciate your time and commitment to our students through LYNX!
Students: Sign up for May experiences on the LYNX calendar, and remember that Learning Lab is available for academic support through Wednesday June 11, the last full day of school!
