Local News Team Visits TMCS Science Class

Tammy Watford, anchor and feature reporter for wlos TV channel 13 in Asheville, NC came to our class on Thursday for a lab on biodiversity.  The lab focused on rain forest animals vs our local temperate forest fauna.  Her "Never Stop Learning" story about the lab and my upcoming trip to Costa Rica ran on the 5:00 news on Channel 13 and 6:30 news on My40 on Thursday, November 10!

Check out the story at Never Stop Learning - Teacher Costa Rica !
