Communicating important information in a fun way is a

great strategy to spread awareness about a topic and

student art as a calendar has proven to be a great way to

get students involved.  The resulting calendar, featuring

the winning artwork, provides a daily reminder of how

important it is for us to be responsible stewards of our

environment.

​
