What an eventful weekend for IMAS!

On May 30, we celebrated the graduation of our IMAS students, marking an important milestone in their academic journey. The next day, on May 31, we continued the weekend with our Ocean Sustainability Field Trip, where students had the opportunity to learn beyond the classroom and engage with important conversations on sustainability, marine environments, and community connections.

Thank you to everyone who joined and made the weekend meaningful. More photos from both activities will be posted soon, so stay tuned! 🌊🎓✨
