Media Mention: Stroud Elementary team comes close to international prize
Started two years ago by lecturer Meg Hines, Stroud Elementary School’s Community Problem Solving Team recently returned from its second international competition in as many years—and nearly brought home the grand prize this time.
Last year the team traveled to Michigan for the international competition. This year, they competed in Wisconsin with a project that involved improving the health of a stream on the school’s property. Working with Liz French, a graduate student in the Warnell School of Forestry, the students designed and built a rain garden to filter pollutants before the water reached the stream.
