Kudos to Third Grade!

Yesterday morning our third graders and their teachers were honored at the Sustainability Breakfast at Lipscomb University. At that event, our students learned that they were the first place winner in Tennessee for their Disney Planet Challenge project (just look at the excitement on their faces). Beyond the state, they placed in the top 20 elementary schools in the nation. "Keep Our Water Clean; Don't Rush to Flush" has been a great learning experience for our third graders, with that project integrated into every subject. Congratulations to our third grade teachers, Ms. Sanders, Mr. Chisam, Ms. Smith, and DLES Science Lab Coordinator, Ms. Reasonover, as well as all third graders for a job well done! We're proud of you.
