On Tuesday, May 14, sixth grade students will be visiting both the NREL and School of Mines Geology Museum. At NREL, students will see how energy is created and distributed through renewable energy sources and also gain insight into the cost of hydrogen, solar and wind energy production. At the School of Mines, students will get a guided tour of the Geology Museum to learn about the various uses of minerals and get an in-depth exploration of the rock cycle. If you would like to chaperone, click here and sign up.
