Marine Science Theme

The Marine Science Magnet High School (MSMHS) is equipped with a student-run aquaculture facility that has the capability to grow a wide variety of aquatic organisms, from both fresh and saltwater environments. Students engage in the creation of ecosystems, organization of the facility, maintenance of aquatic habitats, and so much more. Through the aquaculturing of fish and corals, MSMHS is helping to reduce the stress on the wild populations by providing locally grown organisms to stores throughout New England. Our students learn first-hand the impact they have on the ocean, the importance of aquaculture, and are empowered to find solutions to real-world problems. The experimental learning that happens every day in the aquaculture lab reinforces these concepts and the importance of environmental stewardship. We are proud to be a part of such a unique community and hope to continue the MSMHS aquaculture legacy for many years to come.
