Helping the environment, animals and people in Bellevue community – these were the accomplishments celebrated by 25 student council Leaders and their parents at Enatai Elementary School on June 13.

Since November, the third, fourth and fifth grade students set up donation stations in school to collect more than 200 items for Hopelink, collected more than 40 items for the Humane Society and made cars to send to sick children in the hospital on Valentine’s Day. They also set up a juice pouch recycling program with TerraCycle to help reduce waste and raise money for charity with the 1-2 cents raised by each pouch.

Each of the students got a chance to stand up in front of their peers and families Monday in the gymnasium to talk about these projects and what they like about being in Student Council.
