Blue Valley High School is a small rural high school in Northeast Kansas. I have the privilege of being the only high school science teacher in my district. I am fortunate to be able to teach the same students throughout their entire high school career. This year, I am teaching Applied Statistics and Analysis in Science, Biology, Chemistry, Earth Science, Physics, and College Biology. I love the challenges that this workload presents and enjoy integrating all the disciplines of science with math and statistics so students best understand the process of science.

Concise and helpful!

A great column that gives an overview of what parameters teachers should use when considering the purchase of seating in the lab. Excellent for teachers to share with their administration to explain why they need to purchase specialized seating.

An unique way to have students think about lab safety

At the start of every course, we encourage our students to think about lab safety. By the time, they reach their college courses, lab safety may seem a little blasé. This case study gives a humorous way to discuss the importance of lab safety as an introduction to further explore how to development of climate and culture of safety.
