Did you know that we have a Children's Garden at Williams-Cone? Last spring we planted carrots, tomatoes and flowers and just recently have been harvesting the "fruits of our labor." Check out the garden for yourself, it is located just to the left of the school entrance.
Summer brought lots of branches and fallen debris on the playground. A group of volunteers came in at the beginning of the school year and cleaned up the playground to make it safer and more pleasing to our children. A BIG thank you to them!
Even though things are turning "orange" outside, we are becoming more "green" at Williams-Cone. How?
1. 4 classrooms were painted with VOC-free paint earlier in the year.
2. We are encouraging email use (you can get the Principal's Newsletter via email!) to cut down on paper usage.
3. We are starting to recycle ink cartridges, cell phones, digital cameras and laptops. We'll keep you informed about our new recycling program as it unfolds.
We have also welcomed our new School Improvement Coordinator, Monique Barker. Monique will be working with the school to help us create healthy learning environments for our children.
