Freshwater Science is a semester long class that is offered in the fall. This course provides students an opportunity to study the living and nonliving factors that shape the life of freshwater systems (ponds, lakes, streams and rivers). Physical factors that influence these systems along with environmental issues will also be studied. Students will monitor Purdy Stream throughout the semester. Water quality, plant and animal life, water discharge and riparian zones will be analyzed each month to determine the health of the surrounding watershed. Other local resources will also be used throughout the semester. |
