For the past few months the 3rd graders have been working on a project to help the community, environment, and fellow peers. Each project group focused on a different topic concerning them, some of the topics being homelessness, recycling, hunger, health, and many global issues concerning our planet. Some of the groups created a solution in our community and school addressing and helping their project topics.
