Yesterday's Storms Rolling in over Walton Middle School. #ourbeautifulschools
Happy Early Earth Day!! Here at ACPS we're always striving to find new ways to do right by this planet, our only home. We're utilizing solar panels, energy efficient lighting, recycling and composting programs, and lots of other programs to minimize our environmental impact.
So cool that these students get the opportunity to go to class in a stream! x.com/Earthteacher1/status/9…

Great idea to decrease energy usage, plus studies show that natural light improves focus and productivity. x.com/fcpsGet2Green/status/9…

The days are getting longer and the sun is climbing ever higher in the sky. This means more opportunities for using daylight to light your school in March!

A gorgeous morning for a walk in the woods! Ecology students went for a walk/hike searching for endangered species. Did you know there are several in our own state of Virginia? #AHSbio #ACPS #getoutside #outdoors #hiking #nature

We start by creating with #CAD and #3Dprinting, and before long, we're using it to solve real problems! @k12albemarle @acpslearntech #acps x.com/TheScienceQuo/status/9…

Watershed model was missing a building...problem solved! #3dprinting #tinkercad
