Our criminology class recently turned into an exciting hands-on detective experience as students tackled a mock crime scene! Working as a team, they analyzed clues, followed proper crime scene procedures, and applied critical thinking to deduce what may have happened. This immersive activity not only gave them a glimpse into the investigative process, but also showcased the fascinating world of criminology in action. Criminology engages students with thought-provoking topics and interactive projects, making learning both exciting and memorable. Activities like these are just one of the ways we inspire curiosity and hands-on exploration at our Montessori-inspired hybrid charter high school in El Dorado Hills, CA.
