CTS:  Wildlife

The Wildlife strand provides a comprehensive view of wildlife, encompassing wild organisms and their habitats. Students are encouraged to examine their own relationship to the natural environment and to consider the impact of various human pursuits on species and ecosystems. Students share knowledge, opinions and beliefs regarding environmental issues and recognize the need to make personal choices that limit to sustainable levels, the demands placed on ecosystems.

Wildlife is just one of 22 strands* in Career and Technology Studies (CTS). For more information on the full group of CTS strands, visit the CTS Curriculum Structure.

*Each CTS "strand" is comprised of a group of 1-credit courses designed to support positive career opportunities for students.
