DUBOIS – In order to commemorate the 50th annual Earth Day celebration, Kelly Stringer, AP environmental science, AP biology, ecology and eighth-grade science instructor at DuBois Central Catholic assigned her ecology and eighth-grade science students a few different assignments.
They could create a slideshow of photographs depicting certain items from an ecological scavenger hunt, they could paint rocks with earth-friendly messages or encouraging phrases to put around their neighborhoods to make people smile, create Earth Day-inspired chalk art or pick up trash around their neighborhood.
Wearing his mask, following COVID-19 guidelines, Jack Adair, a 10th-grade student, decided to pick up trash around his neighborhood.
