A Visit with the Congresswoman
| Categories: News

Lowell Leaders in Stewardship “Environmental Adventures” students met with Congresswoman Tsongas and Head of School Brian Martin in early 2017 to talk about the projects they have in the works for the rest of the school-year.
LHS ninth-graders Amina Bangura, Lilly Chhun, and Naihla Parrilla shared that this spring, they plan to build a zen garden in the alley next to the Freshman Academy. They came up with the idea when raking the alley this past fall, commenting on how relaxing raking can be. Inspired by the existing but unused garden beds, they hope to provide a place for busy students to rake stones, and relax. The garden will also prevent storm water run-off from draining into the Merrimack.
