Clark Creek Elementary School STEM Academy fifth-grader Taylor Boysen won a $300 grant for her project, Bottle Cap Art. For her project, students will create artwork using recycled plastic bottle caps and lids to be displayed on the school grounds. Taylor said the project encourages recycling and allows the schools graduating fifth-graders to leave a legacy of recycling and learning behind for future students to follow.
