Flora and Fauna Identification by Students of Bunker Hill, IL

Students of Mrs. Cloud's 8th grade class and Mrs. Dobos' high school classes have worked diligently in the production of this web site.  They have taken the pictures of the trees and plants, then researched vital information about each one.  Future classes will be able to add more trees, plants, and fauna.
