Earth Day Fair Photos from JFK High School


Today is the 40th Anniversary of Earth Day, and at JFK High School, the Eco-Friendly Environmental Club held a fair for science students at Kennedy to promote awareness of environmental issues and ideas.

Sweta Sukadhia, the President of the club, ran the popular "Wheel of Ecology." Students were given a chance to spin the wheel and then given a question to answer to quiz their knowledge in areas like recycling.

There were plenty of activities planned .  Here are just a few more things to do and see...

Among the animals making a special appearance was Jesse's Sugar Glider


Nupur ran a "guess how many bottle tops in the water bottle" contest


Janki is pictured here with Caramel, her pet Rabbit


Tejas and Sagar gave out sno cones.  "The sno cones are a prize, they can redeem the tickets they win at the activities for this treat.  It's to help motivate everyone to learn something that will help them become more eco-friendly."




Mr. Viteri gave a lesson on composting with worms, to demonstrate a way to recycle food scraps.
