KWHS Students Develop Their Scientific Knowledge with the Biotechnology Class

February 27, 2026
 
In this course, students study fundamental concepts of life and biological functions, as well as how technology can transform the scientific world.
 
In a recent lab activity, students successfully performed the Gram staining protocol, a foundational technique used to visualize bacteria under a microscope. Working collaboratively in teams, they carefully transferred different bacterial samples from petri dishes onto microscope slides and followed the precise steps of the Gram staining process. Through this hands-on experience, students observed and identified the types of bacteria present in each sample, reinforcing both their technical skills and their understanding of microbiology.
 
Kelly Walsh High School is committed to preparing all students for their next step by creating high expectations, academic rigor, and personal responsibility.
