  • Chromebook Cases

    Funded Mar 5, 2021

    We are extremely grateful to everyone who has donated to our class project. We are excited and look forward to carrying our Chromebooks to and from school every day, safely! By having our Chromebooks at school and at home, we will be able to work on our school newspaper from whatever location we are working from.”

    With gratitude,

    Ms. Norwood

  • Rapid Biotic Assessment

    Funded Jan 19, 2020

    Thank you for donating to our class project. Once we get these nets, we will be able to collect water samples of the tiniest critters from our river, so we can determine the health of our river.

    We can’t wait to get our feet wet as soon as the weather warms up!”

    With gratitude,

    Ms. Norwood

Students will visit three points on the local North River in Colrain, Massachusetts. At each location, students will collect samples from the bottom of the river, using 500 micron fishing nets. The collections get placed in trays, where objects and critters are sorted. Once the critters are sorted, students count and classify each type of critter based on the quality of water each needs to survive. This will tell us the health number for our river. Students will then compare the three different collection samples to see if the river is healthy in all locations, or if it is worse downstream from the factory.
