OVMS Students Do Prep Work in Support of "The Lantern Project"
Scores of Orchard Valley Middle School students recently prepped hundreds of mason jars and supplies that will be used to craft lanterns in the upcoming second annual “Spring in Service” day. In conjunction with Washington Township High School’s annual Senior Service Day, “Spring in Service” will pairs approximately 100 WTHS seniors with 500 elementary students in grades 1-5 throughout the District. The groups will work jointly on a service project -this year, the Lantern Project. The project is being sponsored Kennedy Health and hosted by the WTHS Changing Our World Project.
