Upcoming Events

New Representative and Alternates

We have selected new representatives from each of the classrooms in Sept.  An alternate was also chosen from each classroom.

Each new member should:

•  Bring a pair of gardening gloves to school and keep them in their bags.
• Be able to stay after school for occasional meetings and provide their own transportation home.
•  Have an interest in plants, wildlife, and environmental issues
•  Take notes in their notebooks and report to their homeroom about Harmony Habitat news.

We will be planting new bulbs in the Woodland Habitat and around our school trees on Oct. 30th. We will be planting camassia, hyacinth, and daffodil bulbs.
