Green Team meets a scientist!
Today Green Team members gave up their lunch period to come watch a live conversation with a scientist! Skype with a Scientist happens once a month and we LOVE to participate! This month we listened to Ms. Eman Khwaja, a marine biologist who's working on her PhD at UMass Dartmouth. Her research focuses on humpback whale behavior changes around Massachusetts. (check her out on Instagram! @whale_detective)
30 Green Team students participated today - we got quite a few questions answered! Watch the full event here!
Environmental Awareness Week 2025
EA week was a great success! Our students saved energy by turning off lights around Central, colored environmentally themed pictures on recycled paper for local nursing home residents and our Green Team did their first campus clean up of the year! Walk to School day was a popular day with a huge group dancing on the black top before our school day. Our spirit day on Friday was a sea of green around school! We love to see it!
Start Collecting Pop Tabs!
Pop Tab collections are starting up again this year! Collect pop tabs from cans at home and bring them to your classroom. Then, once a month the Green Team will collect pop tabs from all the classrooms. Pop tabs will be weighed, recycled and donated to the Ronald McDonald House Charities. The class with the most pop tabs each month will win the Golden Pop Tab Award! Check out the video below for more information.
The first pop tab collection date will be October 23rd this year!
