We are planning to meet once more right before Thanksgiving break for a celebration of our hard work and to build another 10 bat boxes to gift and distribute throughout our local community.\r\nThank you for giving my students the tools to bond, learn, and actively build a brighter, healthier future for our local ecosystem.
