South Fork High School students recently traded the classroom for the great outdoors as they participated in A Day in the Life of the Indian River Lagoon (ADIL)!
Through this hands-on research experience organized by @teamorca, our students became citizen scientists, collecting water quality data and studying the biodiversity of our local estuary. This unique opportunity allowed students to apply their classroom knowledge to real-world environmental research while gaining a deeper appreciation for the Indian River Lagoon and the importance of protecting our local ecosystems.
๐ฟ A special thank-you to @Environmental Studies Center for being an incredible ADIL partner and helping make this experience possible for our Bulldogs!
โค๏ธ๐ค This was South Fork's first year participating in ADIL, and our students are already looking forward to joining in again next year!
