**// THe scenario: //**
There is a retention basin on the side of the new high school. The science department wants to put a wetland in the retention basin. The school district doesn't want to provide funding for implementation of the wetland. Convince the district why a wetland is not only an environmentally sustainable solution, enhancing our LEED certification, but will also provide cross-cirricular learning opportunities for all. For your final product, propose a design for the new wetland with detailed specs, costs, benefits, and uses.
