The Thomas C. Marsh Preparatory Academy Leadership Cadet Corps presented the colors at a press conference announcing a $5 million donation to expand science education at the Perot Museum of Nature and Science.
Margot and Ross Perot donated the $5 million to support $1 admission for underserved families and financial aid for schoolchildren.
“Research shows that informal STEM experiences like visits to a museum are where most lifetime science learning occurs,” said Dr. Linda Silver, Eugene McDermott Chief Executive Officer at the Perot Museum of Nature and Science. “It has long been our dream to expand accessibility to those experiences, and this incredible gift from Mr. and Mrs. Perot will help make that possible.”
