Miller Avenue students put their creativity to work crafting vibrant “Earth Day Every Day” posters, ready to inspire the school community to embrace eco-conscious habits. The second graders in Alice Steinbrecher’s class also embarked on the “Great Miller Avenue Clean-up!”

With enthusiasm, the young environmentalists scoured the school grounds, proudly collecting over four pounds of litter. Rounding out their efforts, they created a compost area just outside their classroom, providing a practical way to recycle organic waste and enrich our learning environment.

“It was truly rewarding to take tangible action, knowing we were making a positive impact on our planet and our school environment,” Mrs. Steinbrecher said.
