Mc Kim students rise to the Eco Challenge!!

The Mc Kim Middle School grade 5 class did a great job on their Eco Challenge!! Students and their families made commitments to make positive changes and reduce their ecological footprint . They did this by walking or biking to school more often, turning down the heat, decreasing the length of showers, reducing the packaging in their lunches, reusing grocery bags, recycling more and reducing their garbage. Some quotes from students : " I had a lot of fun doing it. I love to learn about heat, electricity, water , food, waste and transportation. It has been great!!! I love it. It’s awesome!! "Almost down to one bag of garbage" Overall the points from all 4 weeks was 15225…
