Science teacher’s work profiled in national newsletter
Greenhills science teacher Chris Gleason, whose work with students has earned national awards, was profiled in the latest edition of The Caliper, Vernier Software & Technology’s semi-annual newsletter.
The article profiles Gleason and her work with Greenhills students last school year as they compared renewable and non-renewable resources used to generate electricity.
Ultimately, the students built their own alternative energy systems capable of powering a vehicle, machine, or other structure, according to the story.

The experience connected with Greenhills students’ ongoing work measuring the energy produced by the school’s roof-mounted wind turbine and other renewable sources on the Greenhills Renewable Energy Dashboard, a computerized monitoring system mounted on the wall outside the junior forum.
