Mr. Cipollini's science students recently visited Stroud Water Research Center. The students were involved in lab investigations centered around the White Clay Creek. Using Bio-Indicators, (macroinvertebrates) and physical characteristics of the stream, (nitrates, pH, turbidity, temperature) the students were able to determine the health of the stream. The good news is, this portion of the White Clay Creek is a very healthy stream. The students also learned how farms, businesses and residential areas impact Chester County streams. Water Runoff is one of our largest contributing factors. Check out these photos from the day.
