The number and density of schools in the Seattle area is convenient for the study of distributed particle showers produced at the top of the atmosphere by ultra-high energy (about 10²⁰ eV) cosmic rays. We are forming a collaboration for the development of a distributed detector network to study air showers from such ultra-high energy cosmic rays. We call the cosmic ray measurement component WALTA (WAshington Large-area Time-coincidence Array). WALTA aims to provide teachers and students the opportunity to become active participants in forefront scientific projects. A cornerstone of the program will be to install a measurement module at each participating school.
