Jordan Gal ’19 during her senior year at Lexington Catholic had the opportunity to present her senior project “Physical Activity and Glucose Control Among Youth with Type 1 Diabetes” as a part of the Exemplar Scholars Math, Science, and Technology Program.
Now at Clemson University, alongside co-investigators Dr. Michael Riddell (York University), Dr. Steve Willi (CHOP) and Zoey Li (JCHR), she developed this project into a manuscript which was accepted for publication in Pediatric Diabetes and published July 13, 2022. This project titled “Association between high levels of physical activity and improved glucose control on active days in youth with type 1 diabetes” explored the potential association between physical activity level on active days and glucose control in youth with Type 1 Diabetes. Jordan is so thankful to have had the opportunity to collaborate with such outstanding mentors and to finally see all of their hard work in print.
Jordan is a Senior in the Clemson Honors College majoring in Biology.

On Friday, November 4, 2022, Lexington Catholic hosted our first Universal Visit Day, presented by Mathnasium! We hosted 200 8th graders on campus. They experienced what Lexington Catholic has to offer, starting their morning with check in, opening prayer, and the Future Knight Assessment. In the afternoon, they went through rotations of gym rec time, a presentation from Mathnasium, and a service project where they drew door decs for hospital room doors. After their rotations, they enjoyed pizza for lunch. To end their day the 8th graders listened to a presentation that reviewed the academic programs here and watched a showcase of the performing arts and athletic teams.
