This year students and staff got creative at home to celebrate the 50th Anniversary of Earth Day on April 22nd. We released our first ever LPS Earth Week Bingo Card<\/a> and encouraged families pick something from each of the themed days: Energy, Consumption and Waste, Climate Action, Water, and Great Outdoors\/Arbor Day. <\/span><\/p>

Schools shared their Earth Day celebration photos with us which included walks around the neighborhood to pick up litter, practicing recycling right at home, gardening and starting an at home composting bin, building bird feeders, switching to reusable containers, and more. <\/span><\/p>
