World Savvy Lifesavers
Congratulations to the 7th grade World Savvy Team the Lifesavers!
They were awarded $400.00 from World Savvy to implement their Knowledge to Action Plan.
They plan to work with various schools in the
metro area to have a competition for classes to write letters to Minnesota
State Senators. The letters will try to raise awareness about eco-friendly
building and materials. They will have one year to implement their plan and document
their progress in a blog.
