Pictures from 1998
Kruse Education Center, Orland Park and Tinley Park, Illinois
Kruse Cares!
In partnership with our local Jewel/Osco Store, students received paper
grocery bags to distribute in classrooms to decorate for Earth Day 1998. Kruse
Education Center is part of Community Consolidated School District 146
incorporating sections of Orland Park and Tinley Park, Illinois. Our student
population is 452.
Our students decorated a total of 437 grocery bags for Earth Day 1998!
21 classrooms participated in the event, including students from Kindergarten
through 6th grade. Students included individual messages on the bags that
showed that Kruse students really care about our earth. They learned that part
of being earth conscious is to share their message with the community. Students
were very proud of their work. Student Council officers delivered the brightly
decorated bags to the grocery store in time for Earth Day distribution.
This is the first year Kruse Education Center participated in this
great project. Thanks for starting this great idea! We look forward to
participating again next year.
