Earth Day 2018 at Franklin County High School

Franklin County High School celebrated Earth Day on Thursday, April 19, a few days early from actual Earth Day.  They did that so it would coincide with a school days.  Earth Day was used as a learning experience for the students.  Each student was armed with specific questions that they needed to find the answers to.

The Central Gym was set up with various nature related displays.  The BRFAL Chapter was invited to attend, and as usual, we excelled by manning 3 individual displays manned (actually mostly "womanned") by BRFAL chapter members.  Our displays instructed about Bald Knob Natural Area Preserve (which abuts the FCHS campus), Bluebird monitoring and the life cycle of monarch butterflies.  Thanks to Kathy Scott's photography, I will share a few pictures from our day.

    Nice article, Rich, and great photos, Kathy! We were also able to reach a significant number of teachers who often use Bald Knob as an outdoor learning experience. We were able to give them resources and a better understanding of how to access and protect this natural area preserve. Thanks to Wes for being there to represent DCR. The students were great! CH
