FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

MEADOWBROOK STUDENTS VISITING TEXAS WESLEYAN FOR MATH AND SCIENCE CAMP

Texas Wesleyan University will welcome 40 students to campus this week for the Math and Science Camp for Meadowbrook Middle School. The 7th-graders who are attending are part of the AVID (Advancement Via Individual Determination) Program. The two-day camp – which focuses on chemistry, computer science and team building – is an initiative of the East Area Council of the Fort Worth Chamber of Commerce. Dr. Ricardo E. Rodriguez, professor of chemistry, will lead two sessions on chemistry. Last year, the East Area Council received the Fort Worth Independent School District’s Golden Achievement Award for Partnership Excellence for sponsoring and designing the camp.
