Each year, the 3rd and 4th graders volunteer to clean up their school yard for EARTH DAY.  They were asked to bring rakes, brooms, dust pans, and gloves from home and Mr. Neumann supplied us with the large black bags to fill. The weather was perfect for the classes to work outdoors. They all worked very hard and the result made them all very proud. There was a large pile of full black bags that were picked up by Mrs. Kulus which she will use for her compost pile. Thank you 3rd and 4th graders for making our school beautiful. Happy Earth Day!!
