Schools across North Texas launch hundreds of SLANT 45 projects

32 North Texas school districts are participating in SLANT 45!  Here are some of the projects they launched to improve their schools and communities:

The Ruby Young Elementary ACE Team from DeSoto created a community garden at their school to teach their community to grow food naturally, to maintain a garden, to share resources and to work together.
 
As part of the school-wide health and wellness fair produced by students at Valley Ranch Elementary in Coppell ISD, kindergarten students created a skit to educate their peers about dental hygiene.
The Dunn Elementary Dragons from Arlington collected gently used books to distribute to needy children.
Ms. Fisk's Sherman ISD team wrote letters to children hospitalized at Texas Scottish Rite Hospital.
Students from Mackey Elementary in Balch Springs painted over graffiti and participated in several other community cleanup projects.
