OHS Science Dept. Takes to Facebook

by Lucas Smith

    With social media growing larger every day, it’s hard to not find what you’re looking for online, so Oly Science Department students and staff have now made this department no exception.

    Students and staff have designed a Facebook page for the OHS Science Department, making it more accessible and visible throughout the district.

    With big things happening throughout all of OHS’s science classes, the staff was looking for ways to share with the community what’s happening in the classrooms.

    “We asked students for their opinions and suggestions on how to share with the community how and what students were learning in the classroom, and we decided to go to Facebook,” OHS Science teacher Mr. Rackauskas.

    Students in current science classes have been helping design the Facebook page in attempt to make the page user friendly and easy to find.

    “I think the page is a good idea.  Last year The Pantagraph wrote about our science classes a couple times but now we can spread our own word,” said OHS senior TJ Peters.

    The Science Department hopes to attract interest of community members in their projects and to gain support.

    “Overall so far the Facebook page has been a success it’s bringing a lot of attention to the great things we are doing here at OHS,” said Mr. Rackauskas.
