Times Sciences Palisades Trip
by Kevin Andersen, PCHS
The PCHS Environmental Science class spent
April 11-14 at the Palisades Centre near Jasper.
Students participated in games, labs, water
testing and a debate.
Our classes generally went from 9:00 am to
9:00 pm most days. We also had the opportunity
to hike around the Centre and then ride up the
Jasper Sky Tram and hike around some more.
It was beautiful and our students learned a great
deal.
