marine biology elective goes on a reef check

10/17/2018

 
​Last week our marine biology elective students participated in a Reef Check with the EMBARC education program in Marina Del Rey. They spent three hours on a highly interactive marine conservation course that was taught by marine scientists on a boat out on the ocean. They learned all about California’s native marine ecosystems, they reviewed shark adaptations, learned about plankton, participated in a plankton tow and even carried out scientific testing of seawater. #ecology #marinebiology #handsonlearning 

Meet the high school insiders

10/16/2018

 
Last night our 7th and 8th grade students and their families got to meet some "High School Insiders"- nine former students of Portola HGM who have gone on to five schools (North Hollywood HGM, Granada Charter, Cleveland Humanities, Taft, and Reseda Science). These students came back for a night of candid Q & A in which parents and students were able to ask the students about their different programs, and get more information from our very own alumni!
