Good morning!
It is hard to believe that it is already Friday, our last day! We just had breakfast and are now headed off on the swamp tour!
I forgot to mention what we did for work yesterday -
We pulled out the "tallow tree," an invasive species in SE LA. The kids walked through heavy woods with loppers and cut down the trees. During the process we encountered biting ants, huge mosquitoes, and scratchy, sharp brush. We emerged from the woods with bites, scratches, and cuts, but did a great job of cutting down the harmful tree. Ask your student to see their "battle wound."
And I must give a special shout-out to "Team Algebra" for all of their fantastic work. Thanks Ally, Brian, Brittany, Carmen, and Kiley!

Thanks to the chaperones and the students for the great work they've been doing in New Orleans. I'm sure the people of New Orleans are grateful for all you've been doing. A big thanks to all the parents for giving their children the opportunity to help other people through volunteering. It's been hard work but sounds like everyone has had a great time. Have a safe trip home and enjoy the rest of your summer.
