Water Testing

6th grade students have the opportunity to conduct water testing to determine the health of our local waterways.  Interpreting these results will allow students to evaluate conditions that would best support biodiversity.  Click on the links below to learn how to conduct each of these tests. 

Once outside, students will be assigned a group of tests to complete and record in their student packet.
