Last week, fifteen of Mrs. Rankel’s 7th Grade Science Students showcased their insights on the Scatter Creek Watershed and the headwaters of the Chehalis River Basin, during the 32nd Annual Student GREEN Congress at Evergreen State College. Students monitored the water quality of Scatter Creek and the Mill Pond in both October and February. They presented their findings to experts in water quality and students from grades 3 to 8 across Western Washington. Additionally, they participated in workshops learning a variety of ways to be good stewards of nature and our environment.
