Investigators NMC Visit
Investigators have been interviewing professionals in the St. Albans community and at school over November and December.  On Wednesday a group of three students and Ms. Rouleau travelled up to the Northwestern Medical center to interview administrators and staff as well as to get a tour of the facilities.  They had a great time and learned a lot.
