Colleton Preparatory
Academy in Walterboro, SC
The 160 Kindergarten through 5th Grade students of Colleton Preparatory
Academy in Walterboro, South Carolina have decorated 200 "Bi Lo Grocery
Bags" with Earth Day greetings. This is the first year that Colleton Prep
has participated in this wonderful project. The students' creativity was
truly sparked by this project. The art work inspired by the Grocery Bags
Project was not only imaginative, but also portrayed the concerns that
children have about our only home, the Earth. A special thanks to the local
Bi Lo Grocery Store manager, Jamie King, for his help and enthusiasm. Also,
a thank you to our Art Teacher, Ms. Suzanne Bowman, and our Lower School
Lead Teacher, Mrs.. Carol Armentrout, for all of their help, support, and
organization. I have attached a picture of one of our students with his
"Earth Day Grocery Bag." I hope you received it. I would also like to
thank you and those who help you for the many hours of hard work I know that
you must spend on this project. Please know that your efforts do touch the
lives of others.
