Environmental Science Class Conducts Labs

Students at Central Columbia High School who are enrolled in the Environmental Science course conducted two labs over the past week involving slope and mineral identification. Students have been studying soil composition, soil forming factors and soil management techniques in the Soils Unit of the course. Students learned about slope and its effect on erosion, vegetative growth and the importance of cover crops to maintain proper soil health.
