ARBOR DAY Pg1

JBE celebrated Florida Arbor Day on January 15th. Several other classes joined the four third grade classes for this event. A Gumbo Limbo tree, which is a Florida native tree, was planted with the help of a youngster from each 3rd grade class. The Viking Gardeners under the direction of Jane Mills recited the Conservation pledge and then wowed those present with their knowledge of the Florida state bird, flower, tree, wildflower, & butterfly. Each child was presented with a slash pine seedling to take home and plant. Use the link for Arbor Day Pg2 at the top of this page.
