This month in social studies, the first graders learned about identifying public issues and were challenged to work together to make positive changes in their communities. This project tied in easily with our character education trait of the month, Responsibility. Two of the classes chose to plant tulip bulbs on the Aquinas College campus and one class will act as the "light police" reminding teachers and students to conserve energy by turning off lights when not in use. The students learned the importance of improving their communities through service and volunteerism and were even highlighted in the Grand Rapids Press!
