Kurt Wojciechowski from the Cudahy Middle School has recently been awarded the Earthwatch Live From the Field Fellowship.
Wojciechowski will spend 11 days in the Canadian Arctic this fall working with scientists. This expedition focuses on monitoring the vast stores of greenhouse gasses in the Arctic and their impact on climate change. Wojciechowski will share experiences with his students using live video or phone conferences, journal entries, photos, as well as lessons and suggested activities online.
