News from Ms. Amundson
Hello -
This is a friendly reminder that the deadline is quickly approaching for an amazing opportunity with high school seniors at your school, called the Davis-Bahcall Scholars Program. This is a wonderful, once-in-a-lifetime, all-expense-paid opportunity that connects science-curious students with peers and mentors while exploring the modern world of STEM research. Scholars will spend four weeks exploring leading national and international laboratories and universities in the Black Hills, across the Midwest, in Chicago, Illinois, and in Italy. The group will also visit national monuments and landmarks of cultural significance during their time together - with all expenses covered by the program.

We are eager to involve students from all over the state in this program, so we are hoping you will help us cast a wide net and attract a diverse collection of STEM-passionate students to apply for this fantastic learning and travel experience. For more information and links to apply for the Davis-Bahcall Scholar Program, please visit: https://www.sanfordlab.org/dbs.

The adventures of previous Davis-Bahcall Scholars are chronicled on the Davis-Bahcall Scholars Facebook page. Check it out to see the adventure and learning that are possible for students across South Dakota.
In 2023, the program will run from Sunday, June 11th through Sunday, July 9th. Application deadline is January 20, 2023.
Please encourage your science-curious students to apply and let me know if you have any questions along the way.
Thanks,
