Kent council votes to wait before acting on neighborhood request to close sidewalk section

Programs rely on parents, family members to keep activites rolling

At Franklin Elementary, volunteers with Franklin for Our Planet, a subcommittee of its Parent-Teacher Organization, plan “earth-friendly” activities to raise students’ awareness of ways to help the environment. During the Scholastic Book Fair, from Sept. 23 to Sept. 30, an empty classroom at Walls Elementary becomes a hub of activity, said Walls PTO President Sherry Tessman. "We have volunteers needed for setup, as well as packing up (books). It’s a huge undertaking, and having people come…
