Hey Lions, did you know the Monday, April 22nd is Earth Day and we've got something super cool planned! We're asking all of you awesome students to help us out by collecting plastic bottle caps. You know those little caps on top of your water bottles or soda bottles? Yup, those are the ones we're talking about! Instead of throwing them away, bring them to school! You can leave them with your homeroom teacher everyday next week and someone will come and pick them up. Let's show our planet some love and help keep it clean and green!
