During the 2000/2001 school year, 8th grade students in Mr. McCollum's classes at Charleston Middle School in Charleston, Illinois are active participants in the new P2K initiative - Passport to the Solar System. Throughout this exciting journey, they are learning the latest scientific findings about our planetary neighbors from NASA mission scientists, and collaborating on projects with students from other schools across the country.
