Stay tuned for more information on the Earl Beatty Eco-Team throughout the school year. The student club will be run in March to May, and efforts will begin shortly to once again certify Earl Beatty as an Eco-School.

Current parent and teacher participants are: Martha Brown (room 15 teacher), Jody Parekh (parent), and Laura White (parent). Please contact us if you'd like to get involved.

Thanks, Laura White (lecreelman@hotmail.com)
