Two local schools finalists in national environmental contest
Two local schools are vying to become winners in a national contest recognizing contributions to a healthy environment.
Superpower your School is a partnership between Staples Canada and Earth Day Canada and awards 10 winners (five elementary/five secondary) a $20,000 shopping spree to purchase new technology.
Locally, Aspen Heights Elementary in Red Deer and Lacombe Composite High School have been named to the top 100 entries. The winners will be announced this April in conjunction with Earth Day on April 22.
At Aspen Heights, where staff and students run a well-renowned microsociety, environmental initiatives have been ongoing for seven years.
