Old Saybrook High School Honduras Expedition

Twelve students will be traveling to Honduras, in July, to participate in a two week workshop studying coral reefs and the ocean waters along the eastern coast of Honduras. This is a work/study event with college course credit given. This is not a holiday.

The group will look at and study the diaderma on the island of Roatan, off the Honduran coast and then move to the mainland to Tela, Honduras to study the coral reef and the effect of the declining diaderma on the coral.

The group will be trained in scuba diving so they will be able to examine the coral first hand.

We will have the group attend a Rotary meeting in the fall to report on the happenings on their adventure.

L-R: Mac Coppes, Sam Lafreniere, Aiden Reid, Bailey Noack, Tiffany Kiako, Samantha Aimone, Austin Goodhue, Libby Scherber
