The Biology students recently spent time "hugging" trees, also known as measuring the circumference of trees, on the school grounds to determine how much carbon is being stored on the school property. We will be learning about the different biogeochemical cycles in the coming weeks, and this specific lab helps students identify where carbon atoms are found and describe how the atoms move through our ecosystems. We also had the opportunity to have Zach Reed from Impact Life, a blood donation organization in the area, come in and speak to us about the importance of blood donation. This organization keeps the donated blood resources in the area to hospitals like Grant Regional and Southwest Health. Zach also did blood typing with students who wanted to learn about their blood type. Later this year we'll be learning about how blood type is inherited from one generation to the next.
