Third-grade students at Presumpscot Elementary School studied climate change and its impact on the Coast of Maine (lobsters' life cycle) and our economy.
Third and fourth-grade students studied the endangered species of Utah during an expedition called "Save Our Species." The students created an illustrated anthology of poetry to educate others about the endangered species of their region.
