The third grade students in 3R, 3B and 3MC participated in the RI Junior Duck Stamp Contest.

This contest promotes awareness of wetlands and waterfowl conservation.

Best of Show from each state's contest goes on to the national contest, and the national winner is made into that year's Junior Duck Stamp.

Junior Duck Stamps are sold by the U.S. Postal Service for $5 per stamp. Proceeds from the sale of Junior Duck Stamp support conservation education, and provide awards and scholarships for the students, teachers, and schools that participate in the program.
