First, Guardian Angels 7th and 8th grade students, Mrs. Foster, Mrs. Deeley, and Mrs. Stalzer extend a very special thank you to Mrs. Mongelluzzi for making the presentation and activity possible. Mrs. Mongelluzzi sponsored this event through her most generous donation. We all thank you. Mr. Jake Martin https://mote.org/staff/member/jake-martin educator with Mote Marine presented the many types of careers in the marine science field. This session is intended for grades 9-12. This speaks volumes to the character of our students that Mote marine accepted our request to include 7th and 8th graders in such a presentation. They were all very interested and had many pertinent questions. After the careers presentation, 7th grade students participated in a simulated red tide removal initiative. The students were tasked with efficiently, safely and cost effectively removing a substance emulating red tide from water while protecting the marine life within. Students worked in small teams to purchase materials to remove the red tide. They also had to take into account marine life protection, proposals to obtain funding and working together to accomplish the goal.
