The Henrietta Education Foundation funded a field trip to the Fort Worth Museum. The students went to the Omni and saw the film, Jane Goodall - Reasons for Hope. They learned about scientific and conservation efforts around the world. They explored the Innovation Studio then participated in a Snail Science Lab. There they learned about anatomy and physiology of snails. They explored Texas Energy and learned about drilling in the Barnett Shale. Thank you to the Henrietta Education Foundation for providing this experience for these students. We are grateful for their support.
