University of Utah

Thank you for your countless hours mentoring our students, collaborating with our educators, and sharing your expertise and experience with SLCSE over the decade.

HawkWatch International

We are very excited to be collaborating with HawkWatch International on a project that allows students to work with data and scientists, both in the field and in a statistics elective class that is offered at SLCSE. The course is available to our 9th, 10th and 11th grade students.

Students work with staff from HawkWatch International to learn how data on raptors is collected and analyzed. Students make the tough hike to the research site in the Goshutes to participate in data collection. These trips take place in late September and early October, which are the optimum times for data collection. The trips to the Goshutes are amazing.

A wide variety of data will be collected on these trips. Along with existing HawkWatch data students are exploring the world of raptors through the AP Statistics class taught by Ms. Chandler. The application of statistical methods to "real" data provides students with and interesting and important educational experience.

Project Discovery

SLCSE High Schoolers are working with Project Discovery, a team of archaeologists, to host Stewardship Day. This is an event where people from all over the state are invited to tour Nine Mile Canyon while our students, alongside archaeologists and university students, interpret the sites.
