INFORMATION FOR PARENTS:
DISCOVERY
GOES GREEN - APRIL / EARTH MONTH-
CELEBRATION
Month-Long
Activities:
Recycling Drive-
Teachers are encouraging their students to recycle paper, glass, aluminum, and
plastic. Students should bring materials from home, as well. The class with the greatest amount of
pounds/student will win a prize at the end of the month. Environmental Science students will
collect the materials from the homeroom classrooms twice a week.
Green
Day- Each Friday wear green to celebrate
and help us remember to take “green actions.”
Increasing our green space- In line with Discovery’s month long effort to “go green,”
on Friday, April 25, Discovery students will have an opportunity to “green” our
campus by planting plants around the school. Discovery families can sponsor a
plant for only L400. This
will include the plant, soil, fertilizer, and other materials need for the
planting. Students can have the joy and experience of watching their plant grow
over the years that they are here at Discovery. If you wish to sponsor a plant,
please send L400 cash to your child’s homeroom teacher by Thursday, April 24th
