MS Students Enjoy Summer Opportunities
Last week Elias Woolsey spoke in middle school Town Meeting about his summer adventure that was made possible by a Summer Opportunity Grant from USN.
Elias attended a camp called Action Quest in the British Virgin Islands, where he learned about the marine ecosystems, helped survey underwater organisms, and saw the damage done to the reefs by humans. He says, "The experience increased my curiosity about marine biology and environments around the world."
