KIDS SAVING CRITTERS
The first Kids Saving Critters club meeting of the school year will be held this Friday, October 4, during recess for all grade levels, and students will be reminded of it that morning at Friday Flag. In the area with trees and benches, they can join an activity to learn about California's oak trees, the habitat they provide for many animals, and the help they need from us. The club's primary goal for this year is to establish a schoolyard habitat of native plants on school grounds this winter. Hope to see your student(s) there!
