Kids Learn Science and Life Skills Via PUSH/SUCCESS
| |
Nearly three dozen middle school and high school students from Sarasota and Manatee counties will experiment with sea urchins and anemones, kayak on the bay to study oysters and try scuba diving from June 9 to June 22 at New College of Florida.
The students are attending PUSH/SUCCESS, marking its 10th year as a summer program at New College. Students will work in the "wet lab" of the College's Pritzker Marine Biology Research Center, learning valuable lab skills and developing an understanding of how their health is affected by the health of the coastal environment.
