For the 2010-11 school year, the class is studying "Cultural Ecology Through Petroglyphic Stories".

This academic unit examines the relationships of geography and climate on the cultures of Pre-Columbian settlements and early settlers in the Truckee area.  The class has been working closely with the Donner Summit Historical Society, conducting fieldwork, touring the different sites of the 20-Mile Museum, and studying petroglyphs around Donner Summit.
