El Campo WIT (Workforce Industry Training) students started off the year with a trip to Texas State University-San Marcos. After touring the campus, students enjoyed an educational and FUN trip to The Meadow Center. Students enjoyed the glass bottom boats and a tour of Spring Lake wetlands. Students were able to participate in an environmental program where they got a concrete background in understanding the impact of exotic species on diverse ecosystems and endangered species, as well as the effect of pollution on a habitat. Students conducted macroinvertebrate testing at a location on Sink Creek which feeds into Spring Lake.
