Students from kindergarten and third grade who participated in getting the school certified attended Tuesday’s ceremony. The project was a collaboration between kindergarten teacher Heidi Schembri’s class and The Nature Club, started by third grader Kaya Loy. Three educational institutions have now been certified, putting Los Alamos another step along the road to achieving certification as a Community Wildlife Habitat. Photo by Bonnie J.
