TRASHformation Pictures

 Congratulations to all of the 3rd & 4th graders who participated in the Madison County TRASHformations Contest this year! Each student created their own piece of art out of recycled products and then the teachers of Saint Paul's voted on 1st, 2nd, and 3rd place. Students were judged by the amount and variety of recyclables they utilized in their project and the level of originality and creativity of their design. 

Coming in 3rd place with her "Colonial Claire" project was Emily Milano (left)! Second place went to "Pop's Terrific Tugboat" by Jack Kenison (middle)! And our 1st place winner who went on to compete at the county level with all the other area school winners is "Recycobot" by Jayden Ponce (right)! 

Brayden Proffitt (left) with his Robo3000, Logan DiRosa with his Ultimate Birdhouse, Claire Loemker with her creation "Claire's Clubhouse", and Cayla Wilderman with her project "The Drinking, Thinking Chair." 

All the students will receive a ribbon of participation and 1st, 2nd, and 3rd place will receive a special ribbon at the Awards Banquet. First through third place also received a  special prize. Make sure you stop by the school to take a look at all of the creative projects on display outside of our classroom. The students really enjoy this contest every year and it's always fun to see what they come up with each year!
