We had an excellent day at Duke Homestead for Field Day! Our scholars had an amazing day with activities curated to address creativity in STEM and learn some history around Durham's early development in the tobacco industry and members of the Duke family. We appreciate Duke Homestead for the hospitality, care, and intention in creating such an engaging and fun day outdoors! #NCLearningHappensHere
