La Porte High School science teachers are paying tribute to graduates who are succeeding in science-related fields by creating a Wall of Honor. The wall features graduates' photos under a banner proclaiming "LPHS Graduates Succeeding in Science."
According to Matt Hausler, LPHS physics teacher, the department would like to add more photos to the wall featuring LPHS graduates.
"The main goal for creating the wall is to help our current students see that there can be a future for them that is rooted in what they will learn through our science department," he said.
The LPHS science teachers are looking for LPHS graduates working in science-related fields such as engineering, medicine, research, architecture, laboratory technology, biology, environmental science and science teaching.
Information needed for the wall includes the graduate's name, year of graduation from LPHS and an 8" by 10" photo, preferably in the setting in which the individual works. Other information included on the wall is the college the graduate attended as well as his or her major field of study, employer (optional) and current job title. Information may be sent to Hausler at La Porte High School, 1002 San Jacinto St., La Porte, Texas 77571, or by e-mail at hauslerm@lpisd.org.
