Trojans Go Green

A new class offering will provide GJHS students valuable opportunities to collaborate with local industries, trainings, and employment opportunities rising around the region. In the Green and Emerging Technology Class students will analyze the importance of alternative energy and its benefits to our economy. Real-world problems will be given to students and they will develop efficient solutions using methods such as solar electricity and geothermal heating for homes and businesses. Students will develop creative solutions that harness the wind and waterways to generate electricity. Students will also be challenged with problem solving activities that address current needs and global impacts as related to the environment, national dependency on oil, a need for new inventions, designing a smarter electric grid, and gain experience with emerging technologies.
