During the week before spring vacation, students from all over the building participated in eco activities that help our environment. With each activity, one bean was placed into a jar. A line was placed on the jar and if student beans passed the line on the jar, all students would receive no homework for the night and enjoy the great weather.
Southeast School students not only met the goal, but also exceeded the goal! So… congratulations Southeast and Team Hendricks. No homework for tonight. Go outside and enjoy the beautiful weather!
