Turning Trash into Treasure!🗑️FPS middle school GT students teamed up with the City of Fayetteville Arkansas Government and conservation partners to collect trash from Lake Fayetteville, and turned it into an amazing sculpture of a gar, Arkansas’s state primitive fish! 🐟♻️ High school students built the metal frame, and the final piece came together at McNair Middle School before traveling to John L Colbert Middle School, Holt Middle School, and the Fayetteville Public Library, where it’ll be on display all summer. 🎉 Next stop: a statewide tour with the Arkansas Game and Fish Commission! 🚌🌎 #FPSCreates #GTStudents #TrashToArt #ConservationInAction #FayettevillePublicschools
