To celebrate Earth Day coming up on April 22, the 10-12 grade helped Clayton County Conservation make some improvements to the Motor Mill and Osborne pond areas. Students removed invasive species like honeysuckle and crown vetch from prairie areas and removed stumps along trails. It was a great day to be outside and make a difference in the public lands in Clayton County. Thank you to Clayton County Conservation and Kenny Slocum for partnering with #ClaytonCountyBEST and helping us organize the event. Also thank you to Central Senior Brandy Tieden for her hard work to make it all happen yesterday.
The 7th and 8th grade students also participated in some outdoor activities on Tuesday. They included fishing, an Earth Day Scavenger Hunt and litter clean up. Again, thank you to Central Senior Brandy Tieden for her hard work to make it all happen yesterday and Mr. Mork and Mr.Ledbeter for lending a hand.
