SouthCoast program.

This program is funded by a grant from the National Science Foundation / Robert Noyce Program, who's goal is to increase the population of teachers who are strong in science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM) in our nation's public middle and high schools.

This is a unique opportunity for teachers in the Southcoast region to deepen their content knowledge, strengthen their leadership qualities and acquire the latest technological skills for use in their classrooms.

Come and check out our baby sharks as they develop in their egg cases at the Ocean Explorium.

If you look closely you can see their pink, feathery gills. Eventually these will be enclosed under the sharks gill covers, but as embryos they are external.
