Explore Conservation
The Explore Conservation feature was completed by Monica Mix and Brandon Siegel under the auspices of Gilmour Academy's Catalyst Program, a semester-long mentoring experience designed to give students authentic experience in fields where knowledge is created, and to further development of the fundamental abilities of the Gilmour curriculum, including critical thinking, communication, and self-learning. The Catalyst Program is directed by former research chemist, Deanne Nowak, Ph.D.
