RHAM trip to Bermuda in July, 2014

RHAM High School will be offering a field trip in July, 2014 to the Bermuda Institute of Ocean Sciences (BIOS) for students who will be in grades 9, 10, or 11 during the 2013-2014 academic year. The focus of this trip centers around ecology and evolution and is intended for a student who possesses significant scientific inquiry (and enjoys slowing the pace to examine the natural world), is adventurous, enjoys the outdoors (especially being in ocean water), and is reasonably athletic (there will be a minimum of 2 miles of walking each day). Much of the trip is spent snorkeling over coral reefs, where there is good viewing of tropical fish and invertebrates, along with some hiking and kayaking. Time is spent each evening after dinner with BIOS staff in lecture/discussions . The cost of the trip is $2000 to cover flights, accommodations/meals, and additional expenses related to guides, lecturers, boat/bus trips, etc . If you have interest in the trip, contact Mr. Linden at Lindenric@reg8.k12.ct.us.
