Summary
:
The District's Educational Services Department has made recommendations for updates in our district-wide course catalog. When a course is submitted that we feel would be beneficial to the students the instructor creates a course of study. At this time we are submitting a new Science course.
Biosustainability is a biology based elective science course that will utilize an interdisciplinary approach to examine topics in Biology, Chemistry, Physics, and Earth Science, using a student designed , built and maintained aquaponics system. The aquaponics system will provide a model to study the intricate connections which exist in nature amongst living organisms, to learn applied science in interdisciplinary settings and will emphasize critical thinking skills, problem solving, collaborative learning and community service while creating bridges to our local community. The solar powered aquaponics system can supply a Culinary Arts Academy with organically grown produce and fish as well as make daily/weekly contributions to our local food banks.
The above courses has been approved by the Director of Curriculum and Instruction and the Assistant Superintendent of Educational Services.
