Elizabethtown-Lewis Central School students Ben Burdo and Cayden Muller, along with third-grade teacher Ann Cotrona, fill in a hole dug to plant a maple tree on school grounds as a followup of the Dr. Seuss birthday celebration held in March. The theme was "The Lorax," and Cotrona and reading teacher Courtney Aloi organized the tree planting as a green activity to reinforce discussion on how to take care of Mother Earth. "Planting our own maple at ELCS really hit home with the students by giving them a stake in their environment," Aloi said. "ELCS students now have a tree of their own to care and speak for as they spend their time here at school ... for, as Dr. Seuss said, 'Speak for the trees, for the trees have no tongues.'" Each student in grades kindergarten through five tossed in a handful of soil to fill in the hole.(P-R PHOTO/ALVIN REINER)
