RIPLEY, Ohio — A select group of students from Ripley Union Lewis Huntington Middle School got to do more than study science this summer.
They were able to interact with it while on an oceanography trip sponsored by two area universities.
“They got to touch it and feel it,” said RULH Superintendent Chuck Birkholtz. “They actually had the kids doing (everything).”
The four-day trip to Sandy Hook, N.J. was all expenses paid by the University of Cincinnati and Wright State University. RULH has received grant money from the universities for STEM projects, or science, technology, engineering and mathematics. Birkholtz explained the purpose of STEM is to immerse students in the various areas through hands-on projects and presentations students enjoy and from which they learn.
