App State Science Program Recruiting Homeschool High Schoolers

Appalachian State University, using money from the state and a corporate foundation, is offering laboratory science classes to high school students at no charge to the participants.

The yearlong AppalSEED program allows twenty students to get hands-on instruction and experience in a variety of laboratory and field work in weekly, three-hour evening sessions. Although the Department of Public Instruction provides a portion of the funding (the university and the Burroughs Wellcome Foundation provide the rest), homeschoolers are actively invited.

The story appeared in the ASU campus newspaper, The Appalachian. See the website for application and contact information.
