Working for a Return to Campus
|
Taking a break from being online, faculty and staff brave the heat to clean up campus before the students return.
Several times they traded in their computer mice for the weed-wacker as they removed invasive Brazilian peppers from taking over the habitat of native plants. Cindy Griffin from the district office continued to work with the horticulture and magnet areas. Magnet coordinator and Janos clean out the flower and vegetable gardens. |

Going Slogging:
No Gators
All 9th grade magnet students in Experimental Science 1 spent the day at Holiday Park experiencing the Everglades Up Close and Personal.
After a brief explanation of how everyone is "affected so they are connected," students spent the day in different activities: riding in an airboat, testing water quality at different locations, dip netting for invertebrates and "slogging" through the slough. More photos in FIELD TRIPS.

Off-Campus Learning in HOPE
Later in the year, all 9th grade magnet students spent one day at Broward College's Tigertail Lake to learn small craft and water safety skills.
All incoming magnet students' first field trip is at a pool for a swimming assessment and enhancement. At Tigertail they now faced open-water rescue since the Everglades is the River of Grass and many trips revolve around water. More photos in FIELD TRIPS.

Billie Swamp Safari/Museum
Juniors in the Cambridge Global Perspectives class spent an entire day on the Seminole Reservation to learn the Native Americans' history and culture.
Students were split into two groups to participate in activities, switching places after lunch so everyone saw everything. One group studied the wildlife on the preserve riding in swamp buggies. Then they participated in the animal show before watching the venomous snake presentation.
The other group first toured the Ah-Tha-Thi-Ki Museum, saw a video about Seminole history and then took a nature walk showing plants the Seminole continue to use in their daily lives. More photos in FIELD TRIPS.

Gardenology 2.0:
Planting Edible Gardens
Students in the Honors Experimental Science got down and dirty learning about sustainable gardening on campus. Freshmen created above-ground garden beds and used appropriate soil for edible plants.
Throughout the year they maintained the gardens while adding compani9on plants. Students enjoyed the mature plants
as they ate the "fruits of their labor."

Fishing the Right Way!
Magnet freshmen completed their Ethical Angling with hands-on practice at Heritage Park. Students learned about habitats, fish biology, responsible fishing practices, and took their skills to the lake!
The course was taught by Youth Environmental Alliance (YEA!) with a grant from Fish Florida.
