Are you ready to INVESTIGATE?

Sleuth Academy will be the laboratory responsible for solving many mysteries as part of our school theme of Creative Student Investigators: Eagle Point Explores or CSI:EPE for short. Our teams this year are named for fantastic forensic scientists. Have a look at the new category of great website links on the right side of the page called CSI. Here you can find out about the scientist your team is named for and solve some online cases. The 6 super-sleuths teams are named for are …

Dr. Henry Lee – The crime-solver of all the big cases around the world!

Sir Francis Galton – The scientist that figured out fingerprints can be used for crime solving.

James Watson and Francis Crick – The team of scientists that discovered the structure of DNA.

Sir Alec Jeffreys – The scientist that figured out that DNA analysis could be used to identify a person and solve a crime.

Dr. Diane France – A true ‘Bone Detective’ or forensic anthropologist. When a potential crime scene involves just a bone or two they call Dr. France and she can piece together the puzzle.

Robert HookeOne of the inventors of the microscope – helping us see where no eyes could see before!

I am looking forward to a fun-filled exciting year of mystery and crime-solving!

Any questions or suggestions?
