West Fannin Elementary School 5th Graders
Partner with Fannin Regional Hospital
By Kim Patterson (STEM/STEAM Lab Teacher) and Lucas Roof (Principal)

In the West Fannin STEM/STEAM Lab, the 5th grade students are currently studying the skeleton system and how x-rays are used to view bones.
Amy Hughes, the Imaging Director at Fannin Regional Hospital, Susan Denton, the Marketing Director, and Jason Jones, CEO of Fannin Regional Hospital, visited the West Fannin STEM/STEAM Lab on Wednesday, October 16th to teach the students in Mrs. Tori Arp’s homeroom about the field of radiology, how x-rays work, how x-ray technology has changed over the years, and the various types of bone fractures.
Students also received the opportunity to view images of real x-rays. We are very thankful at West Fannin to have wonderful partnerships like this that help provide our students with unique and meaningful experiences.
