Blue Point Elementary’s Community Club, STEAM Club and Wellness Club united to celebrate Earth Day in a meaningful way. Together, they cleaned up a nearby nature preserve, reflected on the types of trash they found and brainstormed solutions to prevent future pollution.
The students wrapped up the day by enjoying the beauty of nature through a fun and engaging scavenger hunt. This collaborative event beautifully tied together the missions of all three clubs: the Community Club, led by Ashley Olmstead, brings students together in support of common causes; the STEAM Club, guided by Ellen Vlachos, encourages creative problem-solving to make a difference; and the Wellness Club, led by advisor Brooke Yonick, promotes the health of both people and the planet.
