This enabled science students to study in specific fields. Zoology, botany and other lab sciences were offered as well as a college credit program in biology and chemistry. These courses familiarized students with lab- oratory equipment and procedures. Students also bene- fited from TI's greenhouse which made plant and soil specimens readily available. Some students entered projects in the annual DPS Science Fair. Field trips to areas such as the Denver Botanical Gardens provided another opportunity for students to relate their scientific knowledge to their own existence.
