The Inland Seas Education Association welcomed its 90,000th student on board the 77’ schooner, Inland Seas on Thursday September 15, 2011. The 90,000th Schoolship participant, Will, is a student at St. Francis Assisi in Ann Arbor, Michigan. Will was given ISEA gifts and the whole class received ISEA wrist bands and shared in a “Schoolship cake”. The group was led by Sister Rebecca Mierendorf. Executive Director and Captain, Tom Kelly, said, “This is a really exciting day for Inland Seas and the students of St. Francis. We had a great sailing day on Suttons Bay with our young scientists. After 23 years it is good to see that our mission of Great Lakes education continues to be relevant and vital to the entire Great Lakes region.” The Inland Seas Education Association is a non-profit organization based in Suttons Bay, Michigan, dedicated to science education on the Great Lakes. Its shipboard and shore-side education programs are designed to inspire young people’s interest in science and to provide for the long-term stewardship of the Great Lakes.
