12 students from the Nature and Environmental After School Clubs participated in interest-driven, problem-based investigations of the aspects and challenges in the Elizabeth River including: indigenous people, osprey populations, raingardens, and the importance of trees. Participants registered an osprey nest on school grounds, investigated the people and history of the Elizabeth River, and planned and planted a rain garden. They shared their knowledge with the entire school (250 students) and several families and community members at their Earth Day/Community Garden Celebration Day.
