Experimental Research Center for Sustainable Agriculture (ERCSA)
Radians High School has recently implemented an agricultural project: the Experimental Research Center for Sustainable Agriculture (ERCSA Project). The students are aware of the continuing and growing food crisis faced by many third-world nations. In an effort to direct students' interest in agricultural methods, the school established an agricultural program. The objective is to provide the student with a challenging and unique curriculum program. The project allows them to have hands-on experience and develop an appreciation of agriculture and agricultural methods. Understanding that the world food supply is crucial to the survival of people, the students will study different agricultural methods starting from the small, but growth-intensive “Square Foot Gardening” to conventional and hydroponic systems. The students will be trained in these agricultural methods. Also, many parents have offered their services as resources for this project.
