April is Earth Month - a time to wrap our arms around this beautiful place we call home. As we celebrate our environment all month, and especially on Monday, April 22nd - Earth Day - we encourage all students, staff, and community members to adopt resource conservation practices at home, work, and school.
The theme for Earth Day 2024 is “Planet vs. Plastics.” Plastic pollution remains at the top of the priority list of environmental concerns. For the sake of human and planetary health, there is an imminent demand for significant reduction in all plastic production.
Staff can sign up to show the video Microplastic Madness to students and consider promoting a Plastic-Free Lunch Day. If you have a school garden, now is the perfect time to plan and organize a clean-up event to get it ready for a spring planting.
Families are encouraged to participate in an Earth Day BINGO activity that can help you develop more sustainable practices. Print it out and put it on your refrigerator or bulletin board for full family participation.The BINGO card contains many useful and interesting links to further assist you. Remember to recycle the card when the week is over OR keep it up and continue on! Keep in mind that the most effective actions - and the ones you’re likely to stick with - come from topics that interest you. Have fun!
