Goodwin College’s high school magnet school, the 康涅狄格河学院, hosted a Green Magnet Theme Day on 2015年9月25日。
Green Day, which is one of CTRA’s largest community service projects, supports the Academy’s 可持续性 theme, allowing students to learn in a project-based environment tied to real-world skills.
The Green Day program featured the annual 源头到海洋清理 of the Connecticut River, sponsored by community partners including Pratt and Whitney, CT River Watershed Council, DEEP, and Goodwin College.
“One of our school’s standards includes demonstrating the impact of individual and social actions. Our magnet theme days give us that opportunity,” said Michele Saulis, CTRA Environmental Theme Coach.
Students were able to take a boat ride on 康涅狄格河学院’s research vessel, the R/V Goodwin Navigator. They also had the opportunity to speak to businesses at an environmental career fair, tour Goodwin’s Manufacturing school, fish off the dock, listen to a reptile presentation, and watch an environmental-themed movie.
阿列克谢斯·罗斯和卡姆林·戴维斯都是CTRA的大三学生，他们整个上午都在为年鉴拍照。
“I loved going on the boat. It was nice to see all that we’re surrounded by,” Ross stated.
戴维斯发现节目中新增的爬行动物演示非常有趣。 “It was cool to touch the reptiles.”
Haley Shepard, also a junior, said that watching the movie 动物奇偶 was the highlight of her day. 这部电影讲述了动物王国中不太可能的跨物种关系。
“Most public schools don’t have events like this,” she noted.
