This summer, all rising sixth graders in the Chicago Jesuit Academy Summer Program are taking part in an Agricultural Science class. Students practice collecting data, making scientific observations, making and interpreting graphs, and making and testing hypotheses in the setting of CJA's garden. Here are some pictures from the program.
A group of CJA alumni organizes sixth graders in doing the daily chores.
