A donated microscope expands the science lab
A local business gift brings 40×–2500× magnification to upper-school biology.

A newly donated microscope is expanding what Governor French Academy students can observe in the science lab.
With magnification from 40× to 2500×, the instrument supports upper-school biology investigations and gives students another way to connect classroom concepts with direct observation.
GFA is grateful for community gifts that strengthen student research and hands-on learning.
