Our First New York School!

 180 PreK to 5th graders at the North Warren Central School in Chestertown, NY wrapped up their CCC. They canceled 417 sales catalogs and loved to project! 4th grade teacher and organizer, Cheryl Erickson writes:

“Thanks for sharing this great project with everyone and for creating such a wonderful web site to support it.  You made it very interesting, informative and easy(!) to use the resources that  you provided to duplicate the CCC in our school.

“The kids had a terrific time spreading the word and collecting and analyzing the data. I’m already planning next year’s challenge for November.  You have so many great ideas on the website.  Thanks for all of the work that you’ve put into it.  When the class saw how many trees were saved when everyone working together, they became really motivated.  It was a very empowering project.  Thanks again.”

  1. I loved doing the catalog cancellation. I just felt so good to be able to help save water, trees and especially making a difference and getting younger children interested in the good cause for everything to help our planet. We are going to be the people that take over this planet and then our children and there going on for generations and don;t we want it to be just as good for them as it was to us? I really think that they should have the same good opportunities as we had.
    I really think that every one of us should help.
