2024 Earth Day: Planet vs. Plastics

During this week's Monday Morning Assembly, first through eighth graders learned about the importance of recycling and the impact of single-use plastic on our planet. They were encouraged to find ways to cut down on plastics, like water bottles and shopping bags. Students also learned about repurposing and repairing materials to reduce waste. The Assembly closed with the reading of our Land Acknowledgement and an emphasis on our responsibility to be good stewards of the land we utilize.

Throughout the next few weeks, our early childhood classes through eighth grade will participate in campus clean-up and gardening activities, including planting flowers and seeds, renovating a bee hotel, and pulling invasive plants.
