Wildcats, have you been to the beach yet this year? The Upper School marine biology class has! They visited the Duke University Marine Lab to conduct research on marine life. Located in Beaufort, the students collected marine samples for the experiments they designed to test how various environmental factors affect invertebrates. It was a great way to put their classroom learning into practice in real life!
