Lake Butler Elementary in Lake Butler

PLT School Coordinator: Lynn Bishop

On January 18, 2008 Mrs. Alison Waters’ 3rd grade class planted a tree on Florida Arbor day as part of their PLT projects. The students learned the proper way to transplant a tree, most were surprised to learn that you had to make the hole bigger and undo the roots so they could grow. The tree was planted next to the PLT Outdoor Learning Center at Lake Butler Elementary School. The PLT Outdoor Learning Center was build with a grant from Plum Creek Timber Foundation, Lake Butler Elementary School Parent Teachers Association, and the Union County 4-H Foundation Inc.
