Lawrence Township Public Schools (LTPS) K-3 Gifted & Talented (G&T) teacher Jeanne Muzi will spend 12 days at sea aboard NOAA Ship Thomas Jefferson assisting scientists as they conduct a hydrographic survey along the U.S. East Coast. Mrs. Muzi was chosen to participate in this research cruise as part of the 2015 class for the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration's (NOAA) Teacher at Sea Program, a program that bridges science and research through real-world research experiences for teachers. She plans to incorporate the experience into her lessons to better engage her students in marine science.
