On Monday, January 19, 2009, Lewis held a day of service in honor of the memory of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Julia Hamlin lead a good sized group of students, staff, parents and community members, working on several project in our Outdoor Center. These included taking out an old raised bed to make room for new greenhouses, the laying of new woodchips in our path areas, and the beginning of a bioswail near our outdoor classroom. We thank all of our volunteers for their help and support. I am especially grateful to our older students and alumni who came out to help on their own. Some images are available below. A full screen slide show is available here.
On Monday, the Martin Luther King Jr. holiday, we will be sponsoring a garden work party from 9:00 am to noon. We will be working on the west side of the building in our Outdoor Center to set up two small greenhouses and also laying out woodchips on our garden pathways. Students, parents and community members are encouraged to attend.
On Friday, students in 4th and 5th grade worked in the technology lab creating short animation projects around the theme of the Dr. King holiday and or the Inauguration of President Elect Barack Obama.
Today during our second lunch we started to use silverware rather than plastic sporks. We would like to thank all of those who contributed to this project and look forward to continuing to reduce the amount of waste we generate during lunch. Also a continued thanks to all of our great parents who help out washing trays and now silverware at lunch. We could not do this without their support.
