The young citizens of our school are hungry. They are insatiably hungry to feel empowered and efficacious. They are hungry to make a difference in the New Orleans community and the world. But, most of all, the Cougars in my Biology classes and the Art and Ecology Club are hungrily seeking to answer many questions, including: what does it mean to live sustainably with other living and non-living systems? How can sources of renewable energy be used in our daily lives? What are the parts and processes of plants? What are ways to be more nutritious through diet and lifestyle? And how can we affect local economies? While many of my students arrive with insufficient science backgrounds, they thrive when "doing science", and they respond with proud ownership to the tasks of envisioning solutions.
