Susan Pienta

Susan Pienta (CAS’07) of Glen Falls, N.Y., was awarded a fellowship through Earthwatch Institute to spend a week last June collecting data on owls in the Chiricahua Mountains of Arizona with seven other teachers from across the country and an Earthwatch researcher. The goal of the Project Kindle Fellowship is to provide teachers with resources to engage students in hands-on scientific field expeditions. Susan plans to use this experience to get her high school students excited to join her on an expedition in 2018. Email her at spienta@queensburyschool.org.
