David,

If you haven't done so already, you should contact Jay Shelton at Santa Fe
Prep <jshelton@roadrunner.com>.  In fact, we published the honors-class
articles in RSO Magazine recently (2 articles: March-April 1998, INS
Laundry in Santa Fe: Alleged Contamination vs. Site Measurements; and
July/August 1998, Search for Radionuclide Contamination from Santa Fe's
Wastewater Treatment Plant).  Both articles showed what a good, thoughtful
curriculum can achieve!  You might also try Joel Cehn
<jcehn@worldnet.att.net> and Jim Hylko <JHylko@msn.com>.  I know that both
men have worked with high school curricula in the past and may have good
information for you.  In the meantime, if you'd like a copy of the
articles, let me know.
