PlantingScience – springing into a new term of research in the classroom

PlantingScience_logoASPB partners with PlantingScience to support authentic plant science research in middle and high school classrooms across the United States and Canada.

The spring session kicked off Monday, February 15. Already, almost 120 student teams from 11 schools are online and introducing themselves to their scientist mentors. Many other schools will be coming online soon. A few more schools are set to begin later in March.
