Virtual Watershed Summit

Fri, 04/24/2020 - 2:40pm

This week we were invited to participate in the virtual Watershed Summit and see the amazing things our students are working on. Typically, students attend the Watershed Summit as part of their science class. This year, Ava Stamatakis and Ashna Pandya worked on their presentation before school let out and then put in the time this week to prepare for the virtual summit. Elizabeth Bai is the GHS Plastics Student Force rep and she came to the summit to serve as a watershed advocate. We have bright, hard-working kids at GHS and it's nice to let them showcase their abilities at events like this. Way to go Gladiators!
