SC Midlands Summit

We are presenting at the SC Midlands Summit sharing about our experiences with Project Based Learning, Recycling, and Technology this past year.  These are our slides for our presentation.

Earth Day

Recycling student leaders taught the entire school Earth Day lessons. They because the teachers for the day. Many classes participated in the Great American Clean Up too! It was an awesome day!

Recycling Video

Check out this video that highlights everything we did with recycling throughout the year.

 Sandlapper Elementary Recycling

Conservation Teacher of the Year!!!

Mrs. Scott was just named Richland Soil and Water District Conservation Teacher of the Year! We are excited she will be able to share all of the wonderful recycling initiatives happening at Sandlapper with others!

Recycling Plastic Grocery Bags with Trex

Sandlapper was able to recycle 191 pounds of plastic grocery bags. We came in 3rd in our region. We will receive a bird house made out of recycled plastic bags from Trex!

Shoes 4 Water Final Update

Sandlapper students and faculty collected shoes for 7 weeks! Our grand total was 2,146 pairs of shoes. These shoes will be "up cycled" to bring water systems to remote villages in Kenya through Shoes 4 Water. Sandlapper has inspired several other schools in Richland Two to create their own Shoes 4 Water campaign. Wouldn't it be wonderful if there was a district wide Shoes 4 Water competition next year???? Here are a few pictures from some of our incentive events we held throughout our collection!
