The senior team that will be participating in the annual Technology Student Association (TSA) TEAMS competition walks around the Blue Ash Recreation Center, noting the current structure and electrical system. On Jan. 24, they went on the field trip to note any possible areas which they can improve to make the center greener, as they will detail in a written essay. The essay is the first portion of the competition the team must complete.

REEL IT IN. A group of students attempts to fish in the Little Miami River. Students received the opportunity to fish in the river, analyze the chemistry of the water, and collect various macroinvertebrates along the shore. “I wanted my students to experience biology by doing biology. Figuring out what ‘I want to do with my life’ is best answered by experiencing as many things as possible,” Smanik said.
