Description
Project INVEST (Investing in Volunteer Experiences with Support Tutoring) is an investment by Louisiana Tech University’s IDEA Place, Lincoln Parish School Board, area high schools and a community of volunteers determined to prepare and support students in the community. The program is based on the career ladder explainer model utilized at the New York Hall of Science. Students learn about and work with existing exhibits and experiments and create their own to share. Students have served as guides for the science center and ambassadors to the community. Last year INVEST students were recognized for their contributions at the NYLC conference.
