The Environmental Club: Cleaning Up Our Community

"The Environmental Club is getting off to a rough start this year," says Rachel Palmer, a member of this club. She says the reason for that is because their previous advisor doesn't teach at Judge anymore, so they haven't been able to have any meetings yet this year. They also haven't chosen a president of the club, but Rachel said some of the leaders of the club would be herself, Alexis Naylor, Teresa Highsmith, and Marquel Reddish.

Judge defiantly benefits from having this club around school. Rachel says they recycle once a week, collecting all the blue bins in the classrooms and "reusing all the paper, plastic, etc. we would otherwise have just thrown away."

She says that they're going to have a fair sometime this year to inform students about how they can go green and conserve energy. If you want to get more involved, contact Rachel Palmer at rachelmccrae@hotmail.com and she will give you more information about how to join.

Environmental Club

It is often said that what you do to the environment effects not only you, but you're children and all other generations to come. Well here at Judge kids are taking the environment seriously, trying to rebuild and compensate for what our parents have done. The Environmental Club is a group of students committed to saving the planet by recycling and preserving through action and education. Because of the Environmental Club, Judge has a recycling program and is aware of what is happening to the planet, and active in its prevention. Through meetings, posters, programs, discussions, and encouragement, Judge, thanks to it's Environmental Club, is doing its part in preserving the planet for ourselves, and for generations to come!
