KDM- The second-grade students had the exciting opportunity to collaborate with Rockaway Township in planting 158 trees at the Hudsonia Wetland Area located across from KDM. With the support of parent volunteers, the students, Dr. Corbett, and the Township helped restore the Camp Hudsonia Wetland area with native plant species. It was a meaningful and enjoyable experience for everyone involved."--Ms. Lasnick See the full Hudsonia Planting Gallery here.
