During the morning sessions 84 seniors gave PowerPoint presentations of their independent research projects, which were judged by visiting members of the scientific community from Virginia Commonwealth University, The College of William and Mary, Virginia Institute of Marine Science, and Hampton University.
The keynote speaker for the afternoon session was Dr. Deidra Gibson, assistant professor, interim chair, Department of Marine and Environmental Sciences at Hampton University, who addressed the assembled students, faculty and parents on “What is Your Science Footprint?”
Certificates of Recognition and ribbons were awarded to those seniors whose presentations were judged to be exemplary.
