Wacona Elementary School's JASON Team

The JASON Project

The JASON Project is a collaborative project with scientists in another part of the world. This year's theme is "Rainforests at the Crossroads." We'll be studying the country of Panama and its ecosystem, including the rainforest. We will compare their ecosystem with our own here in Waycross and the Okefenokee Swamp.
