Regina Monday Secondary School in London, Ontario offered, a couple of years
ago, to run an all girls science class, they had so many requests that they
had to expand the program, and are now running full schedules of this
because the program was so successful for the students. Contact Maggie
McDonald at the WITT National Network (519 434-0302) for more detailed
