In May, students of an interdisciplinary teaching team from
Serra High School showcased their work from a project teachers designed and
implemented with their students during the Spring semester. Parents, siblings,
and community members in attendance were excited to view and celebrate the hard
work of students. During the exhibition, students showcased Adobe Spark
presentations featuring threatened or endangered animals that they would
encourage the zoo to
designate as “priority species.” Students used rhetorical
strategies they learned in their English class, research on biodiversity and
endangered species and habitats in Biology, and photography or videography
skills in their Career and Technical Education course to accomplish the task.
Now, pictures from Serra High School students are featured at the entrance to
the Office of Secondary Schools at the Ed Center! If you are looking for
