Fifth grade students from McNair and Holt Middle Schools recently explored our local watershed during a field experience at the Illinois River Watershed Partnership in Cave Springs.

With guidance from educators at IRWP and Beaver Water District, students hiked to a cave that is home to endangered and threatened species, used an enviroscape model to see how runoff impacts our environment, and took part in a hands on water relay to learn about the water treatment process.

Experiences like this help students build a deeper understanding of environmental science while inspiring them to care for and protect our natural resources. 💜

Fayetteville High School AP Environmental Science students took a hands on approach to learning during their sustainable urbanization unit. 🌱

As part of the lesson, students worked in teams to design and build their own urban development plans using LEGO bricks. Each team member took on a specific role and worked together to balance important real world factors such as affordable housing, city revenue, environmental impact, and developer return on investment.

This interactive activity gave students a deeper understanding of the challenges and decision making involved in creating sustainable, thriving communities.💜

Ms. Johnson and her Happy Hollow students have been making the most of the beautiful weather during their recent bike unit! 🚲

This year alone, 73 students learned to ride without training wheels for the very first time, including 14 students who had never ridden a bike before. Along the way, students built confidence, practiced teamwork, and learned Greenway etiquette as part of the AGAF School of Conservation Leadership curriculum.

A special thank you to Ozark Off Road Cyclists (OORC) for helping support this experience and keep our students rolling! 💜

Our elementary Gifted & Talented students had the opportunity to extend their learning beyond the classroom this week during a visit to the Fayetteville Garden of the Ozarks. 🌿🔍

While exploring the gardens, students used binoculars to observe and identify local birds, and closely studied flowers, insects, and pollinators in their natural habitats. This hands on experience encouraged scientific observation, curiosity, and a deeper understanding of ecosystems and the interconnectedness of the natural world.

It was a beautiful day full of discovery, exploration, and outdoor learning! 💜

Students in Outdoor Education at ALLPS recently traveled to Clear Creek in Johnson for a hands on learning experience focused on environmental science and responsibility. 🌿💧
During the trip, students used water sampling kits to test the creek for nitrate and phosphate levels, helping them better understand water quality and ecosystem health. They also studied macroinvertebrates, which can provide important clues about the overall condition of a stream.
In addition to collecting data, students took part in creek cleanup efforts, combining science, service, and outdoor learning in a meaningful way. What a great opportunity to connect classroom learning to the natural world! 💜
