Five St. Mary’s students were winners in the recent Middle School “Green” Poster Contest. This contest was jointly sponsored by the Alton Beautification and Clean City Committee, Pride Inc., Republic Waste Services and The Sierra Club. Students were asked to create a poster that urged Green behavior, and careful custodianship of the planet.
Three Alton area Middle Schools entered the competition. They were St. Mary’s, St. Ambrose and Alton Middle School. Prizes were awarded for the top 3 Posters in each Middle School grade Level, so there were a total of 9 winners. St. Mary’s had five of the nine possible winners.
