Today, for Earth Day, our third and fifth graders traveled to the Wastewater Treatment Plant. Students had a behind-the-scenes look at how wastewater is treated, why the process is essential, and the tools and equipment used to keep our water clean. #WarsawInspires

Do you smell like a fish? Lilly Center Lakes and Streams visited 2nd grade. Through the lesson, students gained a greater appreciation of fish and their unique ways of interacting with the environment. They learned that fish have a sixth sense, unlike humans, called a lateral line which allows them to feel vibrations. This helps them navigate through the water. The students were also given the opportunity to create a Gyotaku print. #WarsawInspires

Why not take something that most people see as ugly and unwanted (dandelions) and turn it into something beautiful? Adding dandelions to the benches at recess adds a happy, colorful touch to a normally boring looking bench. #WarsawInspires
