Today is Earth Day, and there is no better time to take on new green habits!
Some inspiration from our own PS107 kids, overheard at our park clean-ups in March/April:
-
“Wow, we should never bring this kind of confetti to the park.”
-
“There are too many plastic bottle caps. That’s all I’m picking up.”
-
“Balloons leave a lot of little pieces.”
Coming up!

Read, anytime! Our committee has curated a list of recommended books (below). We read each of these and can attest to them being wonderful. There is something for all ages. These make great library check-outs and gifts for all those spring birthdays.
Take good care of the Earth, and it will take good care of us!
Here is a longer list of books (we haven’t read them all) for those interested as well. We will continue to grow this, so please share any suggestions!
