Puckett’s Mill Elementary students will hold an open house for its Hands on Habitat program on Friday, January 30 at 9 a.m.

The event will allow students to celebrate and share their innovative science program that features student-guided tours of different habitats.

Teacher Julie Hitt was able to create her classroom filled with creatures, plants, rocks, minerals, skulls, and a wasp nest thanks to a grant from the Mill Creek Cluster Education Foundation.
