After the Spring AP Biology exam was over, our AP Biology students worked to develop a genetics lab in collaboration with Ancestry.com, who generously donated 12 Dog DNA kits. DNA samples were collected from the dogs of Country Day and analyzed by Ancestry.com to determine the dogs' breed(s) and physical and behavioral characteristics.

Class of 2025 Radha C., Garrett X., and Ava E. worked with Dr. Whited to develop a genetics lab based on the Ancestry Dog DNA kits that will now be shared on Ancestry Classroom, as a resource for other high school teachers to use in their classrooms. One behavioral trait was found to be common among all of the dogs of Country Day, they're all 100% good dogs!
