Abstract:
The Junior Curator position at the North Carolina Museum of Natural Sciences helps students between grades 7 and 12 to learn about what it takes to work with live animals at the museum. This article focuses on high school senior Elizabeth Jones, who started as a seventh grader in the program. The Junior Curator position allows students to interact with animals, lead education and outreach programs, and hone their skills to become a leader in the curator circuit.
