Spartanburg District 1 students scored above the state average in three subjects tested on the End-of-Course Examination Program, commonly known as the EOC. The exam tests students in algebra, biology, English and U.S. history, with scores counting for 20 percent of a student's grade for the class tested. In Spartanburg District 1, 416 students were tested in algebra and scored 87.8 percent, 341 students were tested in biology and scored 85.6 percent, 395 students were tested in English and scored 81.8 percent and 337 students were tested in history and scored 76.1 percent, according to data released from the S.C. Department of Education. Stephanie Mathis, coordinator of secondary curriculum for District 1, said the district community is very proud of the students' achievement and will continue to build the bridge between the classroom and beyond. "Our teachers, students and other stakeholders have embraced the practice of targeted instruction of content and skills," she said. "Their laser focus is evident in these … Continue reading →

PUBLIC RELEASE DATE: 30-Sep-2014 Contact: Cody Mooneyhan cmooneyhan@faseb.org 301-634-7104 Federation of American Societies for Experimental Biology @fasebopa When it comes to using marijuana, new research, involving mice and published in the October 2014 issue of the Journal of Leukocyte Biology, suggests that just because you can do it, doesn't mean that you should. That's because a team of Italian scientists have found that using marijuana in adolescence may do serious long-term damage to the immune system. This damage may result in autoimmune diseases and chronic inflammatory diseases, such as multiple sclerosis, inflammatory bowel disease and rheumatoid arthritis in adulthood. "I hope that the knowledge that early exposure to marijuana is associated with immediate and long-term deleterious effects on the immune system may reach adolescents and their families," said Paola Sacerdote, Ph.D., a researcher involved in the work from the Universit degli Studi di Milano in Milano, Italy. "The increased risk of getting sick in adulthood may hopefully be a deterrent for marijuana abuse among young individuals." To make this discovery, scientists injected "adolescent" mice with THC, the main active component of marijuana, for 10 days. This period in the mouse lifecycle corresponded to the adolescence period in humans (approximately ages … Continue reading →
