The Maryland BioLab will be visiting RHHS during the week of January 30th.  The lab is self contained, and will be parked along the curb for the duration of the week; please note that bus traffic will divert around the lab and car drivers should plan to utilize the upper parking lot so that the front of the building is not conjested.

The Maryland BioScience Foundation supports the BioLab program. Brian Gaines, the Chief Executive Officer, says the organization’s goal is to help create the next generation of scientists. “We use this program to talk about careers in science, not only science, but science, technology, engineering and math.” Mr. Gains says students on the bus get real-life experience they do not get in a classroom. “The equipment that students use on the mobile lab, they do not have in schools. Our instructors are actually scientists, they work alongside the teachers. They bring that science experience from the laboratory into the schools and teach the students how to use the newest techniques that we have in science.”

River Hill Biology and Forensic Science classes will be scheduled to participate.
