Highlights from the Math and Science Summer Academy at the Woodruff, Part 1

We kick off our coverage of the second annual Math and Science Summer Academy for the Arts and Sciences at the Woodruff Arts Center this week with a few words from Brown Middle School teacher Leslie Robertson, a gifted endorsement candidate, and Inman Middle rising eighth-grader Najah Jones. Here they discuss their respective participation in the academy, which is the stepping stone for Atlanta Public Schools’ planned Atlanta Studio Conservatory, a fine-arts school that is scheduled to open in 2011-2012 as part of a massive expansion by the Woodruff. More on that later.
