The Macro group measures the biologic life in the stream or river. From this information, the group determines if the stream is healthy. As described in its name, Stream Flow measures the output of the stream or river. The faculty advisors and student captains can be found at the bottom of the page. Once all the collecting of data is complete, students return to school where they analyze the data.
Students construct graphs and charts based on the analyzed data.
All the results from the rivers and streams are then presented at the annual Cleanwater Congress. This allows students the opportunity to to share and compare their finding with many other schools. If the members of Riverwatch detect that the river or stream is unhealthy or getting worse, they will report it directly to the government so that something can be done. Along with other schools, Schalmont's Riverwatch is helping to protect the environment. We all should be grateful for the job they ae doing to help the environment.
