Yesterday, students from Santa Fe High, Capital High, Early College Opportunities (ECO), and Mandela International Magnet School joined forces in the Governorβs School Community Challenge! They took to the parks of our beautiful city - SWAN, Ragle, Villa Linda, and Salvador Perez - to tackle the pressing issue of litter.
A special shoutout to the Naval JROTC team from Santa Fe High, who collected over 60 bags of trash at Salvador Perez Park, earning them a trophy and a $1,000 prize! Congratulations also to the mixed team from Capital High and other schools who took a proud second place, and cheers to the teams from the Boys & Girls Clubs and Santa Fe High for tying in third place.
Letβs keep our community clean and vibrant! π³πͺ
