Hands-On Learning in Action! 💧🌎 Our 6th graders had a great day at the Soil and Water Conservation Tour in Barron last week! They explored topics like wildlife, soils, stream biology, forestry, and lakeshores, and even enjoyed lunch in the park. 🌿☀️
From testing soil compaction to monitoring water quality and collecting specimens from the river, students gained real-world experience in caring for our environment. 🌳❤️
