Chestnut Elementary recognized and welcomed a handful of area veterans today. The school sang the veterans songs, talked about the importance of service, and gave the veterans cookies/hugs. We appreciate the men and women who have served our country. We were honored to recognize them this Veterans Day weekend!

Chestnut fifth graders took part in this year's Watershed Watch, a stream monitoring program run by Lake County SWCD employees where students collect macroinvertebrate samples. These aquatic animals (mostly insects) can be useful in indicating the general health of a river. Their results are recorded as part of the official data for Ohio's Scenic Rivers program. Thank you Lake County SWCD for this incredible experience for our students!
