Trees Trees Trees: Help Macdonough Students Win $10,000 for their School

Evan Bieder ’15, co-coordinator for Wesleyan’s Hunger and Homelessness program, is interning with a new STEM program at Macdonough School as his practicum for the Civic Engagement Certificate. Several of the 4th grade students at Macdonough have worked together to make a video that has now reached the national finals for the Scottie’s TREES ROCK! Video Contest. They are currently competing with nine other groups for a $10,000 prize, which would go toward greening their school grounds. To support Middletown’s budding environmentalists (and to learn an immensely catchy song about trees), tune into “Channel Tree News,” vote on the Scotties website, and spread the word:  http://www.scottiestreesrock.com/
