This curriculum was designed for grades 9-12 and is intended
to be a resource for educators to integrate into their classroom

agriculture alike - invasive species. This program encourages
students to delve into a locally-relevant, rapidly developing
issue of invasive plants which are an increasing problem in Southcentral
Alaska.
