This is a lab students did in Ms. Wachtl's AP Bio. Students successfully transformed bacteria to glow under a black light by inducing them to integrate a plasmid containing a gene for a glowing protein from a jelly fish. To give more context, this is the process by which bacteria were created for life saving treatments such as the mass production of insulin.
As a result of the storm, all Augusta schools will have a two hour delay today, January 29th, 2025. Additionally, Gilbert’s AM Pre-K has been cancelled. The CATC AM session will be Cony students only and the PM session is as regularly scheduled.

Youth night for Cony Girls Basketball!
The AP Government class recently had the opportunity to interview German politician Thomas Silberhorn. Silberhorn is a member of the Bundestag in Germany (the equivalent of the US House of Representatives) and the Representative for Transatlantic Relations for the Christian Democratic Union (CDU) party.
Prior to the interview German teacher Deborah Backman taught students about the German political system and the current political climate. AP Government teacher BL Lippert then worked with his students to come up with questions to ask Silberhorn.
During the interview, which took place via Zoom, students asked their questions, which ranged from how Silberhorn makes political decisions, to the upcoming German elections and how he anticipates the German government will work with the new Trump administration.
The interview was facilitated by the Goethe Institut and the PASCH program. Cony High School is one of only 14 schools in the United States that has been designated a PASCH school due to its strong German program. This designation provides Cony students with opportunities to increase their intercultural competency both in and outside of the classroom
