MCS 5th Grade Rallies for Clean Air
MCS 5th graders made signs and other pieces of artwork that were given to legislators after the rally for clean air at the Utah State Capitol Building today. Many of our students prepared speeches on how air pollution affects them and solutions to the problem. They did an amazing job delivering their speaches in front of a large crowd in the Capitol rotunda. Their teacher, Mr. Knibbe, received many unsolicited compliments about how well spoken and well prepared the students were from the rally organizers, legislators, parents, and news media. "Several of the students were asked to speak before legislators when clean air topics come up for debate, either in committees or on the house or senate floor," said Mr. Knibbe.
