Meeting a real scientist at the N.C. Research Campus and touring one of the massive brick buildings made quite an impact on Kannapolis elementary students this week.
“They think it’s the coolest thing,” Nikki Wolcott said. “The teachers have enjoyed it, too.”
Wolcott, a science teacher at A.L. Brown High School, helped arrange for all 2,300 elementary students in the Kannapolis system to visit the UNC Nutrition Research Institute over five days.
