Seminole County Esports Reaches Sweet Sixteen
Our Fall Esports Team wrapped up an impressive postseason run after an exceptional season that carried them all the way to the Sweet Sixteen of the state playoffs—an outstanding accomplishment for both our program and Seminole County High School.
During their playoff match, the team was performing at a high level and was on track to defeat the number-two ranked team in Georgia. Unfortunately, a sudden power outage at the school caused an unexpected loss of connection. Despite efforts to reconnect, league rules required an automatic forfeit.
Although the ending was disappointing, our players demonstrated remarkable skill, dedication, and sportsmanship from start to finish. They represented SCHS with pride and proved that our Esports program can stand toe-to-toe with the top teams in the state. We are extremely proud of their hard work and accomplishments this season.

School Resource Officer Lawson & K-9 Magic Bring Home Top Honors

AP Biology Students Dive Into Hands-On Cellular Respiration
AP Biology students wrapped up Unit 3: Cellular Energetics with a fun, hands-on “bread-in-a-bag” investigation exploring the power of anaerobic respiration. Using simple materials - flour, sugar, salt, yeast, and warm water - students created miniature fermentation chambers to observe how living cells convert energy without oxygen.
As the yeast began breaking down sugar molecules, students watched the bag inflate, providing a clear visual of carbon dioxide production during anaerobic respiration. This engaging activity helped students connect abstract biochemical pathways to real-world biological processes while reinforcing key concepts of cellular respiration.
The lab was student-centered, energetic, and a delicious way to bring cellular biology to life!

Seminole County Seniors participate in Apply to College Day
Seminole County Middle High School seniors took an important step toward their futures during the school’s Apply to College Day, held as part of Georgia’s Apply to College Month. Each November, this statewide initiative encourages high school seniors to begin or complete the college application process and explore opportunities that align with their postsecondary goals. Throughout the month, many colleges and universities across Georgia waive their application fees, making the process more accessible for all students.
During the event, admissions representatives from Abraham Baldwin Agricultural College, Southern Regional Technical College, and Valdosta State University were on campus to assist students. Their presence offered seniors the chance to ask questions, receive personalized support, and gain confidence as they move forward with their plans. Seminole County Schools extends sincere appreciation to these institutions for their continued partnership and commitment to student success. We would also like to give a shoutout to our AV Tech class and Seniors who helped make our video presentation for this event.

Thank You!
A big shout-out goes to Miss Lawhorn and her students—Caleb Key, Everett Gingery, Koi Thorton, Tristen Hopkins, Zy’Mear Barber, Ryan Reed, and Kason Dukes—for their hard work and community spirit this week. These elementary students took it upon themselves to help prepare our football stadium for the playoff game, removing approximately 25 pounds of trash from the field and bleachers. Their teamwork and leadership made a noticeable difference, and we are proud of their efforts. Special thanks to Miss Lawhorn for guiding her students in this project and to Mr. Johnson, Elementary School Principal, for organizing and supporting this initiative.
