In the News: SVDP-ALC, USAP Pen Pals




(Note: The photo at left is of the Aurora Australis sent to us by one of our pen pals at the Amundsen-Scott South Pole Station, John Miller, the first person to email SVDP-ALC from Antarctica.)


Well, here's some really exciting news! Our little school in Gentilly in post-Katrina New Orleans was just in the news at the wonderful online newspaper called The Antarctic Sun, see the link: http://antarcticsun.usap.gov/features/contentHandler.cfm?id=1500 The newspaper is affiliated with the USAP and the National Science Foundation.

We are all really excited about this at our school. Take a look at the story at the link and look at all the many wonderful articles on science and other topics from The Antarctic Sun. There are some fantastic photographs at the newspaper's homepage too http://antarcticsun.usap.gov/.

Our thanks and best wishes from New Orleans to Editor Peter Rejcek, and the editors and staff at The Antarctic Sun.
