DES Parent and Family Engagement Night
The Law and Public Safety students used a drone to learn how to work a large mock crime scene located on the WVHS baseball field. After being given a crime scenario, they used the drone to locate, identify, photograph, and document evidence including a fake pipe bomb, murder victim, and gun as well as other evidence. After working the scene, the students used different math formulas in order to plot exact distances involved for their crime scene sketch.
