Going ABRO ll ninth grade biol- ogy and Marine A.P. Biology stu- dents were given a chance to escape from the norm. The freshmen divided among four locations: Mason Neck, Huntley Meadows, Dranesville, and Hemlock Overlook. At each place they studied and sampled the en- vironment, collecting data that would make up their first extensive lab report. On September 21, all of the Marine Biology and A.P. Bi- ology classes set out to ex- plore the life at the Marine Science Consortium in Mary- land. Wearing their dirtiest clothes and oldest shoes, the 138 students journeyed through Tom’s Cove, Chinco- teague and the exotic salt marshes of Wallops Island. The groups made many un- usual discoveries, such as sting rays, blue crabs, and various fish. Specimens were taken back to the labs, identi- fied, and released. Becky Clark said she had the most fun while, “Keeping teachers up all night and bathing in the mud.” While Tom Domingues collects a speciman sample from the sound side of Wallops Island. STUDENT Mic LIFE there, she most missed “‘phys = ics lectures and hot water.” — Samara Firebaug After a long, muddy weekend at Wallops Island, Dawn Skjei is happy. — Elly Rajaedgg JERI CHITTICK DMYMD WA Srmrnar
