Fourteen student-led Green Teams win funding for water conservation projects

All 14 student-led Green Teams participating in Project Green 2016 were awarded funding for water conservation projects at a ceremony on Tuesday.

Initially, only the teams that scored highest on a Project Green rubric were to be awarded funding. But because some of the schools proposed fairly inexpensive projects — Bret Harte Elementary asked only for mulch and planter boards — the district decided to fund all 14 proposals, said Project Green Specialist Rachel King.

Einstein girls win middle school softball championship

Albert Einstein Middle School’s girls softball team won the SCUSD middle school championship last week, edging out Sutter 6 to 5 in a close game.

Here’s the recap by Principal Garrett Kirkland: “We hit a home run on the first pitch of the game. Sutter came back and scored four in the bottom of the first. We tied it in the fourth, only to have Sutter regain the lead by one in the bottom of the inning. The Eagles scored two runs in the last inning to take the lead by one and then held Sutter scoreless to win the championship.”
