Homes for Trees
Students at Fall Brook Elementary School in Leominster gathered to bring awareness to caring for our environment by planting trees around their school. Through their research, the 4th and 5th grade students learned that tree roots can filter water of impurities as it enters the ground. They raised funds by taping Guidance Counselor, Mr. Galvin to a wall with duct tape. They are buying three mature trees and planting them in the spring.

Changemaker Champions
The Youth Venture Leadership Team of 4th and 5th graders at Fall Brook Elementary School is focused on helping stray animals in Leominster by donating resources to the Leominster/Fitchburg Animal Control Officer. Through their research, the Changemaker Champions learned that the Leominster Animal Control Officer works alone and is in need of supplies. They are designing and selling their own custom buttons, and presenting him with a check so that he can purchase the items that he needs.
