The Ocean Discovery Institute has been providing free, hands-on research through similar trips since 2004 for students in City Heights.
A group of 29 Hoover High School students recently returned from Bahía de Los Ángeles in Baja California after working alongside scientists and professors.
Carla Camacho was in that first class of students and now works for the organization. She said it opened the doors to opportunities she and her peers otherwise wouldn't have. On the trip, students took daily excursions to learn about science topics such as tracking the local bird population, researching sea turtles and fish, and even swimming with whale sharks — as Chique described.“We were sitting on a boat, and we were surrounded by hundreds of dolphins — and they were jumping all around us. And the eyes of the students were just filled with wonder. They loved it,” she said.
