One of the coolest things about the new building, is how open it is. Going from dark rooms in spaces we created...some not having windows or even doors with a window...every room in our new building will be bright and open. Our students are used to tours and people stopping by. Now, visitors can view classes from the hallway and not have to walk into the classroom. The bottom level windows are the cafeteria. This is my favorite part of the school.

Sharing the Planet
An inquiry into rights and responsibilities in the struggle to share finite resources with other people and with other living things. Central Idea: Biodiversity affects the survival of organisms. Questions to guide our inquiry: What is biodiversity? What are the similarities and differences between living things? How are people, plants, and animals interdependent? What happens when habitats are altered or destroyed? Why are adaptations necessary? What are some ways individuals can protect the earth and it's resources? What are finite resources and why should we share them?
