Tandem Junior Accepted into NASA Academy

 Junior Leah Gunnoe has been accepted into the Virginia Earth Systems Science Scholars academy through NASA. Leah took the five-month long NASA college course called Virginia Earth Systems and Science Scholars and was just notified that she was accepted into the summer academy as a result of her excellent work in the course. Ordinarily this academy is held at NASA Langley, but due to current unusual circumstances it will be online this year. Additionally, Leah was very excited to find out that the guest speaker will be Dr. Christin Darnden, a NASA mathematician who aided Catherine Johnson in calculating the 'go-no go' for the Apollo 11 NASA mission (from the Hidden Figures story). Well done, Leah!
