Go Green
Our third graders are challenging all NCE students to "GO GREEN" in celebration of Earth Day 2022. Students are encouraged to find ways to " go green" by following the three R's, reduce, reuse and recycle. The graders will be sharing green tips and important information about the environment on the morning announcements, using digital slides and via posters in the hallways. Also as a part of this effort, all NCE students are encouraged to participate in the STEM challenges for the month. Using only recyclable materials, build an ocean animal or something of their own creation or a recycle sign for their classroom. All creations can be brought to school the week of April 25th to be displayed. For any questions, please contact Loreal Edmondson at ledmondson@chatham.k12.nc.us
