Lower School Happenings

Books for Babies

Thanks to the efforts of the Episcopal Lower School community, 101 new moms will have books to read to their newborns. Students and families donated more than 1,200 books for the annual Books for Babies book drive. Organizer and first grade teacher Cory Lemoine says 400 more books were collected this year compared to last year. Lemoine and his students presented the books to Baton Rouge General representatives this week. Thank you to everyone who supported this year’s effort!

Third graders recently teamed up with seniors to begin next year’s Coastal Roots planting project. Students filled the planting cells with soil and cypress or persimmon tree seeds. Next spring, the Upper School Environmental Science class will plant the little trees in Fontainebleau State Park.

Second Grade Travel Agency

Did you know…

• The population of Argentina is 44,694,198?
• Potatoes are Peru’s main food?
• A bullet train runs from Tokyo to Mount Fuji?

Second graders showed off their world knowledge during the culmination of their unit on geography. Since January, students have learned about countries and cultures around the world. They also learned to read for a purpose, to conduct research and to take notes regarding their subject. The project based unit incorporated reading, writing, technology and art. Students showed off everything they learned at the annual travel agency event for family and friends in the Greer Center.

Let's Go Fly a Kite

On a perfect spring day, Paw Patrol, My Little Pony and Spider Man could be seen flying over the Episcopal campus. Seniors and kindergarten students scurried about flying a variety of kites for their last official event together as buddies. The day was a great way to wrap up a year of special events.
