Earth Day Challenge Forms
Students are asked to take part in our Earth Day Challenge and become Earth Heros! Forms will be sent home with students on Thursday to take part in this challenge. We ask that students place a check next to the things on the chart every time that they do something to help the planet stay green. They can return the complete chart to the teacher on or before May 1st to be recognized as an Earth Hero!
