Environmental Stewardship at Chehalem Ridge

As the Sea Lions continue to explore the role community members play in making our government systems thrive, we worked together to complete a planting project at Chehalem Ridge Nature Park. Students and parent volunteers worked alongside Metro employees and guides to plant over 120 native plant species along the trails at the park. Our Metro guides shared a presentation about the role Metro plays in local and county government and helped give students a broader understanding of how government systems work together with community volunteers to protect the natural resources we all share.

Along with this fantastic field trip on Friday, our week was filled to the brim with art, writing, reading, math and time together outside in beautiful fall weather!
