Real Life CSI Comes to Foxborough

FHS seniors enroll in forensics.

Foxborough High School is offering a new course to its science offerings and little detective work is needed to figure it out.

FHS Seniors will have the opportunity to enroll in forensics. Foxborough's science department added the new course after determining there was a gap in offerings to those students who are interested in anatomy and psychology.

The course comes complete with an online lab component which allows students to investigate crime scenes online at home.

High School science department head Paul Charpentier attributed the forensic course popularity to shows such as CSI. However, Charpentier was quick to point out that those types of television shows "don't come close to reality."
