The NASA Explorer School (NES) project links educators and students to resources and facilities that are normally beyond reach in the public school system. This direct contact plays an integral part in impacting individual students and entire school communities. NES connects NASA to communities at a personal level that allows students, teachers, parents, administrators and the local community to experience and interact with NASA. Ocean View is proud to have a NASA Explorer School as one of our outstanding schools. |
