Sharmila Kalagendran and her students at Suncrest Elementary enjoyed taking their learning out to the creek every week for Travelling Tuesdays! Some weeks, they went to explore and learn about plants that live there. Other weeks, they worked to clean up the creek near their school. With “Project Pull Out that Ivy”, they learned about the impact of invasive species, and the actions they can take to recover spaces.

How does learning about a place encourage us to care and take action in our communities?
