|
Five Darien High School students made waves this spring as interns at SoundWaters, an organization for hands-on climate science and environmental education. — an announcement from SoundWaters
Cooper Anderson, Julia Den Dooven, Anastasia Grytsenko, Joely Lozada and Jacqueline Thomas spent five weeks immersed in the day-to-day operations at SoundWaters Coastal Education Center at Cove Island Park in Stamford. Instead of attending traditional classes in the final stretch of their high school careers, they chose to step outside the classroom and straight into Long Island Sound. These Darien students were among a select group of high school interns from several area high schools, who gained hands-on experience in environmental science. Working alongside professional SoundWaters educators, SoundWaters interns assisted in science programs for more than 2,000 regional students, ranging from preschoolers to middle schoolers.
