The 3rd Grade Ashdown TARGETS CSI: DI team competed in state competition in Benton and will advance to Global Finals in Knoxville, TN. The first step the team took in solving the challenge was meeting with Sgt. Gary Gregory and learning about real crime scene investigation. The team then created a device to analyze evidence from their crime scene. The device was used in a humorous skit about a murder in “The Shop Till You Drop” grocery store. LeAnn Teston is the team coach.
