Where's Jane Now?
Jane is now back in Alexandria, VA teaching at Lyles-Crouch
Elementary in Alexandria,
Virginia. Lyles-Crouch is located in the Alexandria
City Public Schools District.
Jane participated in the second leg of the EPIC Research
Cruise. She departed from Washington, D.C. on September
30th and arrived in Huatulco, Mexico and flew one exciting
mission on board the NSF C-130 (watch the video).
From Huatulco, Jane traveled to the Galapagos, boarded
the Ron Brown and participated in the EPIC Research
Cruise to Arica, Chile. Jane returned to Washington,
D.C. on October 27th.
After
returning to Alexandria, Jane was given a warm welcome
home from her school Lyles-Crouch Traditional Academy.
Jane also was invited to participate in a Welcome Home
Reception on Capitol Hill that was sponsored by her
local Congressman (Representative James P. Moran).
