Congratulations to the four Cottage Lane Elementary School fifth-graders in Ms. Anne O’Brien and Mr. Phil Krump’s classes who were selected as winners of the Eleanor Burlingham Earth Day Essay Contest sponsored by the Rockland County Environmental Management Council: Cameron K., Valencia M., Jack N. and Jefferson R.! This year’s topic–“Why is water important?”–provided a great opportunity for students to draw on their knowledge of the Earth’s hydrosphere and express the need to protect precious fresh water through a connection to their greater community.
