🌎 Earth Day in Action! 🌱
On Tuesday, April 22, as we head back to school, our amazing 7th–12th grade students will be stepping out of the classroom and into the community to do their part for Earth Day! 💪
They’ll be walking the blocks surrounding our school, picking up litter and helping to keep our neighborhood clean and beautiful. 🧹🗑️
If you see our students out and about, feel free to give them a wave or a thank you — we’re proud of their commitment to taking care of our planet, one piece of trash at a time! 💚🌍
