Dear SLA,

The art students are going to start collecting plastic bottle caps for thier first marking period unit. PLEASE! Bring in all the bottle caps you can to help with our mission.

Essential Questions:

How are plastics affecting our environment/food supply?

What percentage of plastics are being recycled / injested by humans and animals?

What can be done with the excess plastic created?

Here is the group which has dubbed themselves the "Liverdelphians". This morning, as we slept, fourteen girls and four teachers from the Broughton School for Technology, in Liverpool, UK, boarded a plane bound for Philadelphia. They should arrive at 1pm this afternoon.

SLA students have been working since September to prepare for the visit. Fundraising, creating gift bags, scheduling dinners and group events have all been planned and excectued by our students.

Some of the exciting events planned are a trip to New York, a driving tour of Valley Forge National Park, and a tour of City Hall.

The Franklin Institure asked our students to create podcasts that be used as an audio docnet to the upcoming Galileo Exhibit. This is very exciting not only because the podcasts will be heard by the visitors to the museum they will accompany educational packages sent to teachers across the country.

The students involved are: Greg Windle, Laura Kriss, Bre Bonner, Brittney Hair, Morgan Craig-Williams, Jeff Kessler, Tyrone Kidd, Andre Serrano

and Alexia Davis. These students will be participating in the opening events for the exhibit on Thursday, April 2nd at 11am.
